What percentage of the human genetic code is used to code for protein synthesis?

Question

What percentage of the human genetic code is used to code for protein synthesis? 1%. 2%. 5%. 96%. Which parts of the transcribed DNA sequence are kept in mature mRNA? Introns. Inversions. Hox genes. Exons. Malaria is a widespread and severe infectious disease. Only people who have the sickle-cell trait gain higher protection from malaria. Which genotype is associated with higher protection against malaria? Homozygous Hb^A. Heterozygous Hb^A/Hb^S. Homozygous Hb^S. The risk of developing malaria is independent of a person's genotype.

Explanation / Answer

Answers :

Q35. The correct answer is A (only 1%)

Q36. The correct answer is D ( Exons). Exons are the coding sequences that are joined after removing the non coding sequences called introns. This occurs during the post transcriptional modifications of eukaryotic mRNAs.
