Explain the translation
process.
50
During translation, the mRNA strand that was
produced in transcription leaves the nucleus
and travels to the ribosome. tRNA carries
amino acids that pair up with codons on the
mRNA strand. As more amino acids join
together they make up a protein which can
then go to the part of the body where it is
needed. The end product after translation is
complete is a protein. Translation happens in
the RIBOSOME.
