If you imagine a messenger RNA molecule in the cytoplasm of a cell, which of the following will likely affect how much protein is made by translation of this message? A. The presence of appropriate snRNPs. B. The length of the polyA tail. C. The strength of hydrogen bonds holding the mRNA to ribosomal RNA. D. The ability of the mRNA to pair with itself to form a helix-turn-helix structure.

Which of the following statements best describes the initiation of translation? A) The large and small ribosomal subunits scan the mRNA in the 3'–5' direction until the promoter is reached.

The adenines are reabsorbed by the cell and help to form other forms of RNA. D. The tRNA does not recognize the poly-A tail.
