Question:

Name and explain the process the RNA molecule transcribed from 8000 nucleotide-long DNA undergoes to be able to translate a polypeptide of 400 amino acids.

Show Hint

Splicing ensures the formation of functional mRNA by removing non-coding sequences, enabling accurate translation.

Solution and Explanation

Process: Splicing. Explanation: The pre-mRNA transcribed from DNA contains both coding (exons) and non-coding (introns) regions. During splicing, introns are removed, and exons are joined to form a mature mRNA, which is translated into a protein.
