Solution

The correct option is D Both A and B
An intron is a sequence of noncoding DNA. Exon is a sequence of coding DNA. Introns are found between exons in a gene. Genes that contain introns are known as discontinuous gene or split genes because the coding regions or exons are not continuous.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Both A and B.'
