Which term describes as non-coding part of DNA that mau be a fragmented or nonfunctional gene?
mutation
Why do forensic labs analyze non-coding DNA and not genes?
Coding DNA or exons are varying among individuals. But non-coding DNA doesn't vary among individuals and they don't carry information about gene expression patterns. Therefore, non-coding DNA is used in forensic analyses.
How is DNA used as evidence of evolution?
All living things have DNA -- both coding and non-coding DNA. The percentage of similarity between living things matches up with the preexisting theory of evolution.
What does the nucleolus in a plant cell do?
The nucleolus is part of the nucleus and contains the DNA responsible for coding for ribosomes.
When you read a DNA sequencing gel from the bottom to the top is what you read called the coding strand or the non-coding strand?
The result you get from reading the gel from the bottom up is called the anti-coding (or non-coding strand).
Is most of the DNA is humans coding DNA?
No - only a small part of human DNA is coding DNA. About 3% of DNA is genes. These are the sequences that code for a functional unit (like protein).
What is the difference between coding DNA and junk DNA?
Junk DNA is non-coding DNA it does not code for protein.
What is DNA coding?
junk DNA

Is all DNA considered coding DNA?
No - only the parts of DNA that code for a functional product, like protein, are considered coding DNA. This is only a small amount of DNA - about 3% in humans.
What does it meant by 'addition' in recombinant DNA?
Addition in recombinant DNA means to remove non coding or non functional DNA and inserting the functional or coding seuence.
What is the actual coding DNA?
Chromesoines
Can coding DNA type of genetic material be used for DNA fingerprinting?
it can!
What does a long sequence of base pairs code for?
Coding DNA is DNA that "codes" for protein creation. DNA is NOT strictly speaking a code however, it's more like a 3D reverse template for the protein. The component chemicals coalesce from the cell's plasma against the coding DNA much like a lot of non-biological catalyzation. When the protein is completed it peels off and does whatever that protein does.By contrast, non-coding DNA functions in ways other than direct protein synthesis. Some of these functions are being learned, but others are currently unknown. And it is likely that some of the non-coding sections of DNA are "Junk" DNA, ie DNA that does literally nothing.Junk DNA and non-coding DNA often mutate much faster than coding DNA for the simple reason that mutations in coding DNA are usually fatal.
What is the name for a stretch of non coding DNA that interrupts the coding sequence of a gene?
introns
How DNA linked to the role of ribosomes in a cell?
DNA contains the coding for proteins (which are made at the ribosomes) mRNA copies the coding from the DNA and carries it to the ribosome, where tRNA builds up the protein.
