Questions  

The UTRs are some additional sequences present on mRNA which do not undergo translation. These sequences are present at:

a
After start codon 5’ end only
b
After start codon at 5’ end and before stop codon at 3’ end.
c
Before start codon at 5’ end and after stop codon at 3’ end.
d
After stop codon at 3’ end only.

detailed solution

Correct option is C

An mRNA also has some additional sequences that are not translated and are referred as untranslated regions (UTR). The UTRs are present at both 5' -end (before start codon) and at 3' -end (after stop codon). They are required for efficient translation process.
