Which part of a mRNA molecule is edited out?

A) exons.
B) introns.
C) transposons.
D) inducers.
E) promoters.

mRNA Molecule

Messenger RNA, a type of RNA that conveys genetic information from DNA to the ribosome, where it specifies the amino acid sequence of the protein products of gene expression.

Introns

Non-coding sequences of DNA within a gene that are removed by RNA splicing during the maturation of the final RNA product.

Exons

Regions of a gene that code for proteins and are expressed in the RNA.

  • Detail the regulation of gene expression at multiple levels, from transcriptional to posttranslational.

Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Introns are non-coding regions within a gene that are transcribed into the primary RNA transcript but are ultimately removed by RNA splicing, leaving only the coding exons to be translated into protein.
