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


Why have region 2 for DVD players and region b for Blu-ray players?

DVDs are coded into one of five regions (1 - 5)depending on where they are sold around the world. Blu-ray discs on the other hand are divided into three regions (a, b, c). The regions are purely commercial and are used to prevent content intended for one market being sold or used in another. Licensing agreements between publishers and rights holders mean there are different restrictions for HD content. There is no technical reason for the difference in region coding nor for the use of the coding at all.


What is the coding region in DNA transcription?

The coding region of a gene is that portion of a gene's DNA or RNA, composed of exons, that codes for protein. The coding region of an organism is the sum total of the organism's genome.


Which has more mutation coding or non-coding genes?

First of all a gene by definition codes for something so there is no such thing as a "non coding gene". To your question non-coding DNA is no more prone to mutation. A mutation in a non-coding region is far more likely to passed onto offspring because a mutation has no effect on the organism that gets it. A mutation in a gene is more likely to be bad thing than beneficial. So over time (many generations) there are more differences in non coding regions of DNA between individuals. This why DNA fingerprinting looks at differences in non coding regions between people to find unique profiles.

What is the terms refers to a region of a chromosome that has a specifiic function?

The region of chromosome that is generally thought of as the unit of function is the "gene". Genes are composed of both a "coding region"--that sequence that tells the cell's machinery what the protein will be--and a "regulatory" region, which tells the cell when to turn on the coding region to make the protein.
