Describe the difference between introns and exons.

Question

Accepted Answer

Hello everyone and welcome to today's video. So which of the following statements about entrance and accent is incorrect? Now, let's go over each of the statements in this question so that we may solve it. Remember that we're looking for the false statement or the incorrect one. And more, all of our answer choices just begin by answer choice. Eight xon contain the genetic information that codes for proteins. But remember that in a gene, this gene is going to contain exxons and Ron and axons are known as the coding regions. These are going to be kept so that they're shipped to translation so that proteins can be created from them. And therefore this is a correct statement. We're going to be canceling it out because we're looking for the incorrect one. Then we have B introns are non coding regions of the gene. But recall answer choice. A we stated that axons are coding regions. So introns are going to be the non coding regions. These are the regions that are going to be removed in certain post transcription or modifications before translation takes place, they're not going to be contributing to the protein structure. This is a true statement as well. So we're going to cancel it out, then we have ad axons are generally shorter than Ron. Well, this is going to be a true statement as well. Axons are generally shorter in length than Ron and therefore we're going to be canceling it out. Finally, we have C exxons are supply style of the M R N A molecule B four translation. What we stated that these axons are going to be the coding regions or the coding sequences. If we spliced out the axons or if we remove them, we're not going to be able to have functioning proteins. They are essential to the creation of these proteins. And therefore they're not going to be the ones being supplied out instead in trans or the ones that are going to be removed out of the M R N A molecule before translation takes place. This is why this answer choice is going to be incorrect or false. And why we're going to be highlighting it as a final answer for this question. So answer choice, C axons are supplied out of the M R N A molecule before translation is the final answer for this question. I really hope this helped and I hope to see you on the next video.
