What is the process called that follows transcription and involves the assembly of proteins?

• Translation

• Transcription

• Replication

• Mutation

Where does the process of translation take place?

• Ribosome

• Nucleus

• Mitochondria

• Golgi apparatus

What does each codon on the mRNA strand code for?

• A specific amino acid

• A specific protein

• A specific nucleotide

• A specific enzyme

What molecule helps bring the correct amino acid to the ribosome during translation?

• tRNA

• mRNA

• DNA

• rRNA

The ribosome reads the mRNA in sets of three nucleotides called ______.

The region on the tRNA that matches the codon on the mRNA is called the ______.

The process of translation continues until the ribosome reaches a ______ codon, signaling the completion of the protein.
