Answer:

The correct options are:

A-C-E-G-I

A-C-E-I

A-C-G-I

Explanation:

Alternative splicing of RNA produces many mRNA strands from primary RNA transcript. When alternative splicing of RNA occurs, all the introns and some exons are removed. The removal of these exons produces different mRNA strands which are then translated into diffident kinds of proteins. Alternative splicing of RNA can highly increase the number of new produced proteins from same gene.
