These are known as introns. There are more than one type.
You can always tell an intron from an exon by the fact that exons are the [reassembled] genes that are, after the introns are excised, expressed.

A for PLATO users.
this answer is BULL. im on Plato and needed this last answer. whatever you do don't put that answer in it is not true.

∙ 11y agoAll genes code for a functional product. The genes which code for RNA are the only ones which do not code for a protein.
The segments within a gene which are the non-coding segments are known as introns.

A segment of DNA that codes for a protein is called a?
A segment of DNA that codes for a protein is called a gene, or an exon.
What Portion of DNA which carries the genetic code for the formation of a particular protein by specifying its amino acids sequence?
Gene
what is a copy of DNA that is used to direct the synthesis of a specific protein?
A gene is a segment of DNA that is used to direct the synthesis of a specific protein.
What would happen to a protein if the gene was changed DNA?
Change the DNA code & you change the protein.
What is the relationship between DNA genes and proteins?
A gene is a segment of DNA sequence which can fold in any orientation and hence will code for a particular protein. DNA molecule is a double helix structure formed by complementary base pairing of nucleotides. Proteins are formed by particular t-RNA and are synthesized in ribosomes. Proteins are required for various metabolic activities occurring in the body. A simpler way to say the same thing is: A gene is a section of a DNA molecule that contains the information to code for one specific protein.
A segment of DNA that codes for a protein is called a?
A segment of DNA that codes for a protein is called a gene, or an exon.
A segment of DNA that provides the code for creating protein molecules is called what?
They are called sense DNA. On the other hand, portions which do not code for proteins are called junk DNA or non-sense DNA.
What describes pieces of DNA to make protein?
A gene is a segment of DNA that codes for a protein.
What Portion of DNA which carries the genetic code for the formation of a particular protein by specifying its amino acids sequence?
Gene
A is a segment of DNA that coeds for RNA and protein?
a gene.
What segment of DNA holds the plans for a protein?
the brain
What is the segment of DNA that controls the production of a protein?
Gene
What is a segment with information to make a protein?
A segment of DNA on a chromosome that controls the production of a protein is called a gene. Chromosome a cellular structure that contains DNA.
How does gene related to DNA?
gene is a segment of dna that carries instructions for making a protein.
A segment of DNA found on a chromosome that codes for a protein?
a gene
what is a copy of DNA that is used to direct the synthesis of a specific protein?
A gene is a segment of DNA that is used to direct the synthesis of a specific protein.
A group of DNA nucleotides that contains the information to produce a single protein is a?
A gene is the segment of DNA with the information for a protein/proteins.
