Q. In eukaryotic genes, coding sequences are called

KEAMKEAM 2014Molecular Basis of Inheritance

Solution:

In eukaryotes, genes are split genes which contain both exons (expressing sequence) and introns (intervening /non coding sequences). Introns do not code for any protein and are removed during RNA processing (splicing).
