Two cells use the same segment of DNA to produce two different proteins. The mRNA transcribed by cell A contains more introns than does the mRNA produced by cell B. Which of the following is true about the proteins of these cells?
A. The protein for cell A is longer.
B. The protein for cell A is shorter.
C. Cell A produces more of this protein.
D. Cell A produces less of this protein.
Homework Answers
The correct answer is "B. The protein for cell A is shorter." The amount of non-coding region increases with the increase in introns which indicates shorter mRNA after processing (splicing). The processed mRNA in cell A would be shorter than in cell B.

A geneticist discovers that two different proteins are encoded by the same gene. One protein has 56 amino acids, and the other has 82 amino acids. Which of the statements are possible explanations for how the same gene can encode both of these proteins? 1-The same gene encodes both proteins by using different combinations of introns in the pre‑mRNA via alternative splicing. 2-The same gene encodes both proteins by generating a poly(A) tail on the pre‑mRNA. 3-The same gene encodes...

Please explain
Why is a cap added to MRNA, but not to 1RNA or RRNA? Each of the three types of RNA are transcribed by different RNA polymerases. Only RNA polymerase II, involved in mRNA synthesis, contains a domain capable of interacting with enzymes that form the cap. Transcription and processing of MRNA occur in the nucleus, where cap binding proteins are found. These proteins, which add and modify the cap, are not found in the cytoplasm, where tRNA and...

In the process of translation, mRNA attaches to ribosomes DNA is replicated proteins are synthesized RNA is synthesized QUESTION 11 What does it mean when we say the genetic code is unambiguous? More than one codon can specify the addition of the same amino acid. The genetic code is different for different domains of organisms. Each codon can specify the addition of only one amino acid. The genetic code is universal (the same for all organisms).
