The role of DNA segment that do not code for proteins

1 answer:

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.

Describe the change which will occur if a piece of peeled potato is placed in a concentrated sugar solution and explain why this

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Through the process of Osmosis, water will move from a region of high water potential ('concentration') to low water potential. Therefore, water will slowly leave the cells of the potato and enter the sugar solution in an attempt to reach equilibrium and the potato will therefore lose mass.
