Question

1. predict what would happen if there is no start codon in the mrna. i need a hint translation would not start. translation would start as normal. translation would start with a different codon.

Explanation:

The start codon (usually AUG) is essential for initiating translation, as it signals the ribosome to begin assembling amino acids into a polypeptide chain. Without a start codon, the ribosome has no signal to start the translation process. So translation would not start.

Answer:

A. Translation would not start.
