Answer:

Exons.

Explanation:

In mRNA maturation and processing, a complex called a splicesome essentially "cuts out", if you will, non-coding parts of the DNA sequence to be translated. The parts that are cut out are called "introns", and the parts that are left over that code for a protein sequence, are called "exons". Careful with the terminology. It seems counterintuitive that exons are the ones that stay (exon = exit? NO.) and introns (in, as in, stays in? NO.) are the ones that are cut out of the mature mRNA. Perhaps you can remember that the terms seem to be the opposite, that's how I remember it. Alright, good luck with all of this.

During the light reactions part of photosynthesis, chlorophyll in the chloroplast captures energy from the sun. What is this lig

vladimir1956 [14]

In light-dependent reactions, the energy from sunlight is absorbed by chlorophyll and converted into chemical energy in the form of electron carrier molecules like ATP and NADPH. Light energy is harnessed in Photosystems I and II, both of which are present in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts.
