Introns are ______. a sections of DNA that are not translated into a sequence of amino acids b sections of a RNA transcript that are translated into a sequence of amino acids c sections of DNA that are translated into a sequence of amino acids d sections of a RNA transcript that are not translated into a sequence of amino acids

Which of the following statements is true regarding introns? Introns are the parts of mRNA that are translated. Introns do not code for protein. Introns are included in the final mature RNA after splicing. Introns are added to mature RNA's after capping and tailing. In general, human genes have fewer introns than genes of bacteria.

What happens during RNA splicing in eukaryotes? The spliceosome removes intron sequences from RNA molecules in the nucleus. RNA polymerase removes noncoding sections of the primary transcript to produce a mature mRNA. Intron sequences are removed because the ribosome skips over introns during translation. The spliceosome removes exons and joins introns together into a continuous linear sequence.
