Question

Give typed explanation 

Each type of pre-mRNA processing has one or more important functions. Match each function with the appropriate type
of processing.
Addition of 5' cap
alters nucleotide sequence in exons
Addition of poly(A) tail
enables movement of mRNA out of the nucleus
Answer Bank
assists mRNA in binding to the small ribosomal subunit
removes non-coding regions from pre-mRNA
RNA splicing
facilitates production of more than one protein from a gene
stabilizes trailing end of mRNA
assists in RNA splicing
RNA editing
