Removal of introns and the splicing together of exons.
Introns are regions of the DNA code that do not code for amino acids; therefore, they need to be removed before the mRNA strand is translated. Exons are the parts of the strand that do code for proteins, so they need to be pieced together once the introns are removed.
Viruses reproduce by inserting their genetic code into the genetic code of a cell, from there, an active virus will copy itself over and over until that cell bursts, where the new viruses can repeat the process. Another type of virus inserts itself into the genetic code, but does not actively reproduce. It sits and waits for the cell to reproduce for it, by splitting in the way cells do.
Answer: Aorta
Explanation: The aorta is the largest artery in the body. It carries oxygenated blood from the left ventricle of the heart into systemic circulation. The aorta has many subdivisions that branch off into smaller arteries.
