Biology

Answer:

Translation will not occur.

Explanation:

The start codon is responsible for the initiation of translation in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. AUG is the start codon in both which code for methionine in eukaryotes and formyl methionine and prokaryotes.

Therefore if the starts codon becomes mutated than the tRNA would not able to recognize the initiation codon and no methionine would be added as the first amino acid so the translation process might not start and no protein forms. Then the ribosome scans further for the next start codon to start translation.

PLEASE HELP!!! Wil give brain
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer: Last Option (Affects All)

Reason: People may think it may be the last one because it has the most, but in fact, it affects all. When the population finds mates, and have babies, that increases the population, and over a period of time, with the limited space, it's going to be bad. The last one (C) will fill up the space faster, as there are more mates, meaning territorial problems, and babies. The first one (A) has less population, and will fill up in the most amount of time, but it still has the same process and outcome. I hope this helps. :)
