Question

Which of the following process represents the domination of the RNA-world?

(a) Splicing

(b) Trailing

(c) Tailing

(d) Capping

The question was asked in an internship interview.

This question is from Molecular Basis of Inheritance in chapter Molecular Basis of Inheritance of Biology – Class 12

Answer 1

The correct option is (a) Splicing

To elaborate: The ancient feature of a genome is represented by its split-gene arrangements. The presence of introns is a reminiscent of its antiquity. And so, the process of splicing gives a representation about the domination of the world of RNA (RNA-world).
