Question

Messenger RNA (mRNA) travels from the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell to the ribosome. At the ribosome, the amino acids are lined up in order as the tRNA molecules line up with complementary bases on the mRNA. This process is called _____ and results in the formation of _____.

Answer 1

The correct answer is - translation, polypeptide/amino acid chain.

Step-by-step explanation:

The translation is the process that involves the movement of mRNA from the nucleus to the ribosome and where amino acids are formed in sequence linked with one another in the same order as the transfer RNA line up with the complementary bases encoded on the messenger RNA or mRNA.

This amino acid chain or the polypeptide folds in a specific way to active protein for the specific function or expression. This process is the last stage or phase of protein synthesis.
