Knowledge Check

  • Assertion : Untranslated regions are sequences of RNA before initiation codon and after termination codon. Reason : Untranslated regions provide stability to mRNA and also increase translational efficiency.

    A
    If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion
    B
    If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
    C
    If assertion is true but reason is false
    D
    if both assertion and reason are false.
