Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

DNA rearrangements in eukaryotes can indeed enhance the production of certain gene products and increase the diversity of possible gene products from a limited number of genes. This is because rearrangements can activate or increase the expression of specific genes, and by rearranging gene segments, organisms can produce a variety of proteins from a limited set of genes, as seen in the immune system's production of antibodies.
