Answer:

I believe the correct answer is C. mRnA translation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the gene expression is controlled on two levels. First, transcription is controlled by limiting the amount of mRNA that is produced from a particular gene. The second level of control is through post-transcriptional events that regulate the translation of mRNA into proteins.
