How is translation initiated? see concept 17.4 ( page 350) hints how is translation initiated? see concept 17.4 ( page 350) the small ribosomal subunit binds to the mrna. the trna bearing methionine binds to the start codon. the large ribosomal subunit binds to the small one. the start codon signals the start of translation. all of the above?

The translation is initiated as the small ribosomal subunit muddles to the mRNA. Then the tRNA having the methionine binds to the start codon, and the large ribosomal subunit binds to the insignificant one. Finally, the start codon indicates the start of translation.

the framers of the constitution insisted that federal judges be nominated instead of elected due to their desire to have judges above the shifting whims of the masses.

the hope, whether achieved or not, was that federal judges would only be beholden to the law and that by not having judges be elected, they would be protected if that law dictated an outcome that ran counter to popular opinion.
