Translation Practice

1

Order the following steps of translation.

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
mRNA leaves the nucleus
The ribosome binds to the mRNA starting at the cap end
The anticodon on a tRNA carrying the amino acid met attaches to the start codon
The ribosome moves down the mRNA until it reaches a start codon (AUG)
The steps repeat until the ribosome reaches a stop codon
The ribosome makes a peptide bond attaching the two amino acids (the met from the start codon and the next amino acid)
The mRNA, ribosome, tRNA, and polypeptide chain releases

Which of the following occurs in translation? Select all that apply

The ribosome initially attaches to the poly-A tail to start the process

The ribosome creates peptide bonds between amino acids

tRNAs carry amino acids to the ribosome

The ribosome creates hydrogen bonds between amino acids

The ribosome creates bonds between nucleotides

The ribosome attaches to the mRNA

The codons attach to anti-codons
