A) The chemical increases the efficiency of protein production by making it easier for tRNA to interact with the correct mRNA codons.
B) The chemical prevents transcription from occurring so proteins cannot be made.
C) The chemical prevents protein production because once made, the RNA cannot separate from its DNA template.
D) The chemical has no affect on protein production since mRNA contains uracil rather than thymine.
