A particular tRNA is mutated so that the amino acid attachment cannot bind with the aminoacyl-tRNA synthase. What happens when an MRNA transcript contains the codon for this tRNA? O A. The tRNA will not bind to this codon. O B. Translation stops and the protein is released. O C. The wrong tRNA is added to the protein chain. O D. Translation stops and the protein remains bound to the ribosome.
