Order the following steps of translation.

  1. The ribosome makes a peptide bond attaching the two amino acids (the met from the start codon and the next amino acid)
  2. The mRNA, ribosome, tRNA, and polypeptide chain releases
  3. The anticodon on a tRNA carrying the amino acid met attaches to the start codon
  4. mRNA leaves the nucleus
  5. The ribosome moves down the mRNA to the next codon (the one right after the start codon) and a new tRNA attaches to that codon
  6. The ribosome binds to the mRNA starting at the cap end
  7. The ribosome moves down the mRNA until it reaches a start codon (AUG)
  8. The steps repeat until the ribosome reaches a stop codon
