A geneticist isolates a gene from a eukaryotic species The gene codes for a protein involved in lactose digestion They also isolate the corresponding mRNA Upon comparison the mRNA is found to contain 1 000 fewer nucleotides than the DNA sequence Did the geneticist isolate the wrong DNA O no the mRNA was partially degraded after it was transcribed O yes the mRNA should contain more bases than the DNA sequence because bases flanking the gene are also transcribed O yes mRNA is made from a DNA template and should be the same length as the gene sequence on the final mRNA contains only exons the introns were removed
