Best Answer

exons - good parts of gene that code for amino acids

introns- "junk DNA" that do not code for amino acids of a protein ( before leaving the nucles mRNA must have these removed, then it can travel into the cytoplasm)

Horizontal gene transfer in humans?

gene transfer in eukaryotes Gene transfer in eukaryotes may come in the form of mitosis or meiosis. However, horizontal gene transfer, to my knowledge, does not occur in euks. Horizontal gene transfer is when a cell's DNA is transferred to an individual without reproduction. Bacteria have the ability to accept plasmids from other bacteria, and then incorporate the DNA in to their own genome.


In the binding of RNA polymerase to a gene requires the aid of a transcription factor?

Like prokaryotes, eukaryotes must regulate gene expression. This is accomplished primarily by controlling when RNA polymerase binds to the beginning of a gene. This binding cannot take place in eukaryotes without the aid of transcription factor.


What area of a gene carries the code used to make a protein?

The coding region. In eukaryotes this is often divided into a number of discreet regions of DNA called exons.
