Exciting Facts About Translation Process in Biology!

What is the key role of the ribosome in the process of translation?

A. DNA strands are separated and copied

B. Information from DNA is copied to RNA

C. Free floating amino acids are picked up by tRNA

D. Amino acid chains are assembled from information in the mRNA

Answer:

Amino acid chains are assembled from information in the mRNA.
