Question

100% of DNA is needed to encode for proteins.

Group of answer choices

True

False

Answer 1

False

Only 1% of DNA contains the coding region which encoded into proteins while 99% of DNA is non-coding and also called junk DNA. Non-coding region are introns and coding region are exons. Generally introns are removed during RNA splicing after transcription. But introns may contains binding sites for regulatory (transcription factors) elements like promoters, enhancers, silencer or insulators. But major non-coding region located between the genes known as intergenic introns.
