Question

place the steps of the process of translation in the correct order.
i. amino acids are linked together to form a polypeptide chain.
ii. the polypeptide chain is released from the ribosome.
iii. a ribosome binds to the mrna and reads the mrna one codon at a time.
iv. the polypeptide undergoes further processing and becomes a functional protein.
v. amino acids are brought to the ribosome by trnas.

Explanation:

Translation begins with a ribosome binding to mRNA (III). Then, tRNAs bring amino acids to the ribosome (V). Amino acids are linked (I). The polypeptide chain is released (II). Finally, the polypeptide undergoes processing to become a functional protein (IV).

Answer:

1st: III
2nd: V
3rd: I
4th: II
5th: IV
