Q. Consider the following statements: (A) During splicing, exons are removed and introns are joined together. (B) Fully processed hnRNA after capping and tailing is transported from nucleus to cytoplasm. Select the correct option.

A) A is true, B is false
B) Both A and B are true
C) A is false, B is true
D) Both A and B are false
Explanation

During splicing, introns or non-coding sequences are removed and exons or coding sequences are joined together in definite manner. After capping and tailing of hnRNA, functional mRNA is formed which is transported out of the nucleus.
