Answer:
a. Bacteria cannot carry out splicing.
Explanation:
Human genes contain non-coding sequences called introns. Transcription of genes produces primary transcripts that undergo post-transcriptional modifications to produce mature mRNA. These modifications include removal of introns, the addition of 3' poly-A tail and 5' cap. The splicing of introns from primary transcripts is followed by ligation of protein-coding sequences exons to produce mature mRNA. The mRNA leaves the nucleus and serves as a template for protein synthesis.
Splicing of introns requires specific machinery such as several small nuclear ribonucleoprotein complexes, etc. which are not present in a prokaryotic cell. Therefore, a eukaryotic gene like the gene for human growth hormone is not expressed in a bacteria cell as these prokaryotic cells cannot carry out the splicing of introns from pre-mRNA.

Answer:
Fatty acids are long chain carboxylic acids, they contain the carboxyl, COOH, functional group. The general formula for a fatty acid is R-COOH where R represents a long hydrocarbon chain. If the hydrocarbon chain, R, contains only single bonds between the carbon atoms, the fatty acid is said to be saturated.
