Answer:

B. The mRNA produced has a different base sequence

Explanation:

Transcription is the process in which mRNA is transcribed from DNA, which is then translated into a protein.

An error made during transcription does not alter the sequence of the DNA. Therefore, the gene itself is not altered and the error is not passed on to the next generation.

Carbohydrates are never produced by transcription and translation, which produce polypeptide chains which from mature proteins.
