The role of DNA segment that do not code for proteins

Biology
1 answer:
Rus_ich [418]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The non-coding regions of DNA are called introns. They are significant in evolution since they offer a great 'recipe' for recombination with genes/exons. Therefore, this offers variations among individuals on which natural selection could act upon to help a population adapt to changes in the environment. Introns also offer an additional step in gene regulation through the splicing of introns in making of mRNA.
