1. Copy of one side of DNA strand is made (called mRNA, messenger RNA)

2. mRNA moves to cytoplasm, then ribosome.

3. mRNA goes through ribosome 3 bases at a time.

4. transfer RNA (tRNA) matches up with the open DNA bases.

5. tRNA releases the amino acid at the top, which joins the chain of amino acids being produced.
