C

Cistrons

D

Operons

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`**` In eukaryotes, the monocistronic structural genes have interrupted coding sequences - the genes in eukaryotes are split.
`**` The coding sequences or expressed sequences are defined as exons.
`**` Exons are said to be those sequence that appear in mature of processed RNA.
`**` The exons are interrupted by introns.
`**` Introns or intervening sequences do not appear in mature or processed RNA.
