Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

This occurs in the ribosome. The mRNA is bound in between the two units of the organelle that begins to read the mRNA. Based on the codons on the RNA, the requisite tRNA (with the corresponding amino acid) is recruited and bound to the complex. When the tRNA releases the amino acid (used to make a polypeptide chain), the tRNA is released.
