An intron is a non-coding region of DNA. During alternative splicing, introns are removed.

  • During eukaryotic transcription, a fragment of DNA (e.g., a gene) is used as a template to synthesize a complementary RNA sequence, usually a precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA).

  • Subsequently, this pre-mRNA is processed by a mechanism called alternative splicing in order to produce a mature mRNA which is then used as template to synthesize a protein by a process called translation.

  • During alternative splicing, non-coding regions of a gene called 'introns' are removed, where coding regions called 'exons' are spliced back together.

  • If a cell transcribed and translated a gene’s intron by mistake, then additional amino acids would be inserted into the protein and therefore the resulting protein will be longer than normal.

all plants give out oxygen during day and carbon dioxide during night. Do you agree with this statement. Give reason
Citrus2011 [14]

This statement is incomplete.

"All plants give out oxygen during day and carbon dioxide during night"

Explanation :

Photosynthesis occurs only during day time.

During this time oxygen is produced . Some oxygen is used for respiration and rest of oxygen is diffused out into air.

Carbon dioxide produced during day time by respiration is used in photosynthesis.

But at night time, no photosynthesis occurs  and hence no oxygen is produced oxygen from air diffuses into leaves to carry out respiration and carbon dioxide produced by respiration diffuses out into air.

Hence Respiration occurs day and night .. Hence Carbon dioxide  is emitted  all the time....
