Answer 1

mRNA that encodes multiple different polypeptide products

Step-by-step explanation:

Polycistronic mRNA is a single molecule of mRNA that contains many genes, each one with its own start codon AUG, and therefore can be translated into many different polypeptides.

The polypeptide products usually have a related function, they can be either different subunits of a particular protein, or participate in a metabolic process.

Polycistronic mRNA is typically found in prokaryotes.
