The answer is B. Translation

It is translation because in the picture we see the process in which ribosomes synthesize proteins after the process of transcription (messenger RNA is decoded in a ribosome, outside the nucleus, to produce a specific amino acid chain, or polypeptide that later folds into an active protein)
