The correct answer fro above statement is;

c. translation

Step-by-step explanation:

The method of translation practices energy to move the mRNA within the ribosome and to determine the peptide .The ribosome changes along the mRNA and the process repeats. The part of the polypeptide chain development and translation ends when the ribosome stops the stop codon on mRNA.
