Q

Translation

A

Initiation
RRNA attaches to start codon
Trna base pairs with codon
Large rna Join with small subunit

Elongation
Amino acids are added to form polypeptide

Termination
Repeats until stop codon is reached
Release factor binds to stop codon and adds water molecule to the end of the polypeptide chain
