A researcher measures the quantity of cDNA that corresponds to the exons of a particular gene in mice using RNA-seq.  They find that RNA for this gene isolated from the brain contains 4 exons, while RNA from the liver heart and skin contains 5 exons.  What phenomenon likely explains this result?
◦ cells of the brain splice this mRNA differently than other cells in the mouse
◦ the mRNA in the brain is a pseudogene
◦ the brain cell chromosome lacks the exon that is present in the other cells of the mouse
◦ the skin, liver and heart cells differentiate before the brain and so have different exons
◦ there is a brain-specific allele compared to the other cells in the mouse

Astigmatism is the most common vision problem. It may accompany nearsightedness or farsightedness. It is usually caused by an irregularly shaped cornea, but sometimes it is the result of an irregularly shaped lens. Either type can be corrected by eyeglasses, contact lenses, or refractive surgery.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
