Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
In step 3 of translation, a ____ bond forms between ____ amino acids.
A
peptide, opposite
B
polymerase, adjacent
C
peptide, adjacent
D
polymerase, opposite
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -3) Translocation: the ribosome moves one codon over on the mRNA toward the 3’ end. This shifts the tRNA in the A site to the P site, and the tRNA in the P site to the E site. The empty tRNA in the E site then exits the ribosome.

Detailed explanation-2: -During the elongation stage, the ribosome continues to translate each codon in turn. Each corresponding amino acid is added to the growing chain and linked via a bond called a peptide bond.

Detailed explanation-3: -The fundamental process of protein synthesis involves ribosome mediated peptide bond formation between two amino acids.

Detailed explanation-4: -During the elongation phase, just after a tRNA charged with the next amino acid binds to the A site.
