Solution
Exons help in synthesis of Proteins.
Explanation:
An exon is a part of a gene's coding sequence that carries the information needed to make a protein. Genes in eukaryotes are made up of coding exons sandwiched between non-coding introns. These introns are then eliminated, resulting in a fully functional messenger RNA (mRNA) capable of being translated into a protein.
