In a wild-type strain of fruit flies, the length of a gene from the start to the stop codon is 2,000 DNA bases. Suppose an experiment indicated that the mRNA molecule transcribed from this gene is much shorter (only 1,200 bases). What is the most likely explanation for this

you didn't give any options but heres what i can tell you: an inference is likely to change based on additional observations. the latter is something that you have seen or sensed using your sensory organs while the former is like a conclusion out from what you have observed.

barometer is an instrument used to measure the atmosphere's pressure. the high air pressure relative to average levels is associated with calm and sunny weather. on the other hand, low pressure is associated with bad weather, high winds, and rain.
