Exam 14: How Proteins Are Made: Genetic Transcription, translation, and Regulation

Explore all topics

Arabidopsis thaliana is a small plant commonly known as the thale cress or mouse-ear cress and has approximately 25,000 genes.The human genome also contains approximately 25,000 genes,yet a human is clearly more complex than this plant.Both species have introns in their genes.Formulate a hypothesis to explain why a human is more complex than Arabidopsis even though the human and the plant have a similar number of genes.
