What is hnRNA?Explain the changes the hnRNA undergoes during its processing to form mRNA?

Please experts answer my question as fast as possible becoz my exam is going to be held soon.

THANK YOU:-)

hnRNA (also known as Pre-mRNA) is a primary transcript formed after transcription of DNA.

hnRNA has both introns and exons. To form mature RNA (mRNA) hnRNA go through a process known as splicing to remove unwanted intron from it and also 5' and 3' ends of hnRNA are modified. 5' end is modified by the addition of cap of 7-methylguanosine and 3' end is modified by the addition of poly A tail.
