The correct answer is: The addition of a 7-mG cap at the 5' end of the transcript and the addition of a poly-A sequence at the 3' end of the message
These posttranscriptional processes are called:
• 5’ capping - It protects the mRNA from 5' degradation by exonucleases. Cap is also involved in ribosomal binding.
• Polyadenilation or addition of poly(A) tail – It also protects mRNA from degradation of 3’exonucleases. A long poly(A) tail can also increase translation.
Because some animals thrive better in different locations
