Find true and false statements
A. Comparisons of related genes in different species show that the sequences of the corresponding exons are usually conserved
B. when two genes are related, the relationship between their exons is closer than the relationship between their introns.
C. The sequences of the introns are much less similar.
D. Introns evolve much more rapidly than exons because of the lack of selective pressure to produce a polypeptide with a useful sequence.
