Scientists can use a single codon chart to translate the information in a strand of mRNA from any species because –

• scientists only study a few related species

• the codon chart can adjust to any species

• every species uses the same genetic code

• all species makes the exact same proteins

The production of a protein is organized by which of the following organelles?

• ribosome

• nucleus

• mitochondrion

• vesicle
