Question 1:
Exons are gene fragments whose DNA sequence after transcription is found in mature mRNAs. This part of the gene is most often coding.
The size of the exons in the genomes follows a log-normal distribution, with an average length of about 150 nucleotides, knowing that in eukaryotes, each gene contains several exons and introns (an average of 8) so the size is 8*150 = 1200 bp.
Question 2:
Introns are fragment of a gene located between two exons. Introns are present in immature mRNA and absent in mature mRNA. "Non-coding" fragment of the gene.
The introns average in a gene is 3365 bp including 3'UTR and 5'UTR and intermediate introns.
The correct answer is C. lens. Lens is a convex sealed capsule containing a clear fluid and focuses light to the back of the eye. Iris is the colored part of the eye that contracts and expands under influence of ciliary muscle. Retina is the inner surface of back of eye. Cornea is a transparent and curved surface of eye that helps to focus light.
Explanation:
Winds are caused by low and high pressure zones, mainly due to temperature differences of atmospheric air in different regions. Air moves from high to low-pressure zones causing winds.
Local winds, as the name suggests, are winds due to regional temperature differences. An example is sea breeze caused by temperature differences over land and sea in the region.
Global winds, on the other hand, are caused by large pressure systems across the planet. These are mainly caused by differences in how the sunlight ‘hits’ the planet at different latitudes – due to earth’s spherical nature- causing differential heating of the earth. These winds travel great distances causing trade winds.
The genetic code is directly related to polypeptides and proteins in the sense that genes are decoded to synthesize proteins.
What is the genetic code?
Genetic code is the set of rules by which the sequence of bases in DNA are translated into the amino acid sequence of proteins.
The genetic code is unique for living organisms and is used to synthesize the proteins that is responsible for various activities in living organisms.
The genes in the genetic code are first transcribed into mRNA, which is then translated into proteins (polypeptides).

It would be: Rr × Rr
Result of cross would be: 1RR, 2Rr, 1rr
So, it's genotypic ratio = 1:2:1
Phenotypic ratio = 3:1
Hope this helps!
