Determine the correctness or otherwise of the following Assertion [a] and theReason [r].Assertion [a]: In multicellular organisms, cells of different lineages have differentgene expression profiles.Reason [r]: Alternative splicing is the only mechanism to generate proteindiversity.

Which one of the following is true about splicing?Group of answer choicesIn prokaryotes, splicing repressors prevent the recognition of a 3’ splice junction.Splicing activators are proteins with RNA binding activityDifferential splicing means that proteins can be produced with their domains in different orders.In eukaryotes, all cells produce one splicing pattern for a particular gene.

What is/are the advantage(s) of alternative splicing in eukaryotes?Group of answer choicesless chances of mutation in the genesgenerate variations in proteinsenlarges the repertoire of proteins in eukaryoteb and call of the above

Which of the following true statements best supports the claim thatorganisms are linked by lines of descent from a common ancestor?(A) All organisms have the capacity to grow and reproduce.(B) All organisms use oxygen for cellular respiration in mitochondria,an organelle that was once a free-living prokaryote.(C) Different species have specific traits and adaptations that allowthem to succeed in diverse environments.(D) All organisms share a genetic code that allows one organism toexpress a gene from another organism

They are responsible for the huge diversity of genes found among organisms because they are the ultimate source of new genes.Group of answer choicesRNA splicingmutationsalternative RNA splicingNext

Can one gene make different proteins?Group of answer choicesNo, because one gene can code for only a single proteinYes, by modifying the original DNAYes, by splicing the resulting mRNA differently (i.e., removing different exons)No, because genes do not make proteins
