Answer / rehan khan
If mutation occirs at intron region of primary transcript
then functional mRNA will not be generated. This is due to
defect in mRNA splicing. May be this mutation occurs at one
of the splice site which results in production of mRNA of
different sizes.

Answer / rahul rupani
ITS RIGHT THAT IF THE MUTATION OCCURS At.........then it
will result in production of different size m-
RNA, but it will resulted in production of undesired
proteins. which will result in unrequired function of that
proteins.

Answer / kamal kumar malukani
Answer 1 is right but it is only effective if mutation
occure in splicing site or at any site on intron which is
actively participating in splicing. There is one more fact
that if mutation occure in one or few RNA molecules then it
will not make any effect as there will be lots of other
unmutated RNA which will perform correct fumction. in answer
2 it is saying for undesired protein which have very very
less probability because there is very less chance of
production of an active protein.

Answer / amita dimri
introns are basically the non coding regions or sequences
and are removed during post translational modification so
they hardly have any function.Even if introns are remoived
it is not going to make any remarkable difference in the
formation of a mature m RNA.

Answer / kk pandey
Mutation,simply bcoz RNA doesn't have any capacity of 'Proof
reading' i.e. to check whether a particular base is placed at
right position or not.

what are introns and exons?
A number of plant species have a recessive allele for albinism; homozygous albino (white) individuals are unable to synthesize chlorophyll. If a tobacco plant heterozygous for albinism is allowed to self-pollinate and 500 seeds germinate: a)how many offspring will be the same genotype as the parent? b)how many seedlings would you expect to be white?
