Removal of introns and joining of exons in defined order is called:
Show Hint
- Capping
- Tailing
- Splicing
- Blending
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
RNA splicing is a post-transcriptional modification in eukaryotes where introns are removed and exons are connected in a pre-mRNA strand.
This process is essential for converting pre-mRNA into mature mRNA that can be translated into proteins. Splicing is facilitated by the spliceosome, a complex made of proteins and small nuclear RNAs.
Top Questions on Genetics
Match the terms in Column-I with their description in Column-II and choose the correct option.
- (a) Write two closely linked genes that control \(\alpha\)-thalassemia.
(b) Differentiate between thalassemia and sickle cell anaemia on the basis of their effect on globin molecule of Haemoglobin. - A diploid organism is heterozygous for three loci, how many types of gametes can be produced by that organism?
- Study the cross given below:
- Assertion (A): When the two genes in a dihybrid cross are situated on the same chromosome, the proportion of parental gene combinations is much higher than non-parental type.
Reason (R): Higher parental gene combinations can be attributed to crossing over between two genes.
