during translation,ribosomal subunits assemble together like a sandwhich on the strand of mrna where they proceed to attract trna molecules tethered to amino acids a long chain of amino acids emerges as ribosome decodes the mrna sequence into polypepide or a new protein

mRNA attaches to the ribosome.

tRNA molecules transport amino acids to the ribosome.

Anti-codons and codons match up and form complementary base pairs.

Peptide bonds form between adjacent amino acids to form the protein.
