Pre-mRNA transcript processing

What are Introns?
And what about exons?  
How does mRNA "mature" so that it can leave the nucleus so that translation can happen?

If you are still having issues answering these questions, please watch the following animations.

Animation from the book  (you will have to log-in to view this one, it is in Chapter 9, "pre-mRNA transcript processing")

Another tutorial found through google ;) (go through each tab and take the 3 question quiz at the end)

For the remainder of the week, we are going to work on free response examples from the AP Biology test (click here for a preview)
