Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The non-coding DNA sequences forms the part of the organism's DNA. It is the part of the human genome which does not encode for any protein sequence. Some of the non-coding DNA may be transcribed into into any of the functional non-coding RNA molecules such as ribosomal RNA, transfer RNA and regulatory RNA. Other functions of the non-coding DNA involve translational and transcriptional regulation of the protein coding sequences, origin of DNA replication process, scaffold attachment, telomeres and centromeres.
