Which Region of DNA Contains the Coding Information for a Protein

Question

Which region of DNA contains the coding information for a protein in a eukaryote?
A) Exons
B) Introns
C) Enhancers
D) Promoters

Accepted Answer

The coding information for a protein in eukaryotes is contained in exons, the regions of DNA that are transcribed and translated into proteins. Introns, enhancers, and promoters have important regulatory functions but do not contain the actual coding sequence for a protein.
