In humans, protein coding genes are mainly organized as exons and introns. There are intergenic regions that transcribe into various types of non-coding RNA (not translating into protein). some introns may harbor also transcription units, which are

Some introns may harbor transcription units, which can include both protein-coding genes and RNA coding genes. In these cases, the intron region can contain genetic information for both protein-coding transcripts and non-coding RNA transcripts.

The presence of non-coding RNA and the complexity of gene organization in humans highlight the diverse functional elements of the genome beyond protein-coding genes. These non-coding elements play important roles in gene regulation and the overall complexity of cellular processes. Hence, the correct answer is option  2.
