After a complimentary mRNA strand of a gene is copied, the __________ regions must be removed using a(n) __________ because these regions __________.
Understand the Problem
The question is asking about the process of mRNA processing where specific regions are removed from a gene. It implies identifying which regions are removed and the mechanism used for this process.
Answer
C. Intron, Spliceosome, do not code for a protein.
The final answer is C. Intron, Spliceosome, do not code for a protein.
Answer for screen readers
The final answer is C. Intron, Spliceosome, do not code for a protein.
More Information
Introns are non-coding regions that need to be removed post-transcription before the mRNA can be translated into a protein. The spliceosome is a complex that removes introns.
Tips
A common mistake is confusing exons and introns. Exons are coding regions that are expressed, while introns are non-coding regions removed by splicing.
