Determine whether the following statement is true or false: Because introns are largely genetic junk, they do not need to be rem

oved with any degree of precision during RNA splicing.
Biology

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Introns need to be removed precisely because the reading frame will be shifted if removed even single nucleotide too many or leaving an intronic nucleotide in the spliced mRNA .

Extra amino acids will be inserted if large pieces of introns are left in the mature messenger RNA.

In both cases, aberrant protien will be produced if the RNA splicing is not precise, hence they are needed to be removed by precision.

What would most likely happen to plants if they did not have a waxy outer coating?
belka [17]
Plants need this waxy outer coating, also known as a cuticle, for a variety of reasons. The cuticle keeps the important things the plant needs in, such as water and carbon dioxide, and the things the plant doesn't need, such as too much heat, out. It performs a few different functions, including protecting the important cells needed for photosynthesis.
