Order the steps in translation

  • The mRNA travels to a ribosome which reads the START codon sequence (encodes for a methionine)
    1st
  • A tRNA molecule carries the correct amino acid to the ribosomes
    2nd
  • The anticodon on the tRNA is matched to the codon by complementary base pairing
    3rd
  • The tRNA molecule leaves, the ribosome moves a codon along the mRNA molecule
    4th
  • The process repeats until the STOP codon is reached and the ribosomes dissociates from the mRNA molecule
    5th
