b-Arthropods have more alternative splicing.

c-Arthropods use the exon definition.

d-Vertebrates have more alternative splicing.

Solutions

Expert Solution

ANSWER- correct option is d

vertebrates have smaller exons than arthropods because exons are more spliced in vertebrates , as we look at the c value paradox, the amount of exons and the total amount of DNA In an organism vary irrespective of the genome size.

this fact shows that the exon numbers are variable with comparison of introns and thus this makes that the exons may variable, irrespective of the genome organism.

therefore,more number of splicing takes place in. veterbrates.
