Final answer:

Intron does not participate in translation.


Step-by-step explanation:

Translation is the process in which proteins are synthesized in a cell. It involves the conversion of mRNA into a polypeptide chain with the help of ribosomes. Out of the options provided, Intron does NOT participate in translation. Introns are non-coding regions of DNA that are present in the initial RNA transcript but are removed before translation occurs.
