6. Explain the process of translation. How do the different types of RNA work together?
7. What is a codon?
8. How does a ribosome know where to start and stop translation?
6. Translatio is the process by which the genetic code carried in the mRNA is decoded, making a chain of amino acidss, also called polypeptide chain.In other words, we can call it the protein biosynthesis.
There are 3 types of RNA involved in translation-
7. Codon-It is the sequence of nucleotides(A,T,G,C) of DNA or RNA , which codes for the a specific amino acid after translation.
8.There are specific codons, which are called the start and stop codons ,when an ribosomes encounters a start codon, it will start the translation.When a ribosome encounters a stop codon , it stops the translation process.
