Answer:

In translation, the cell uses an mRNA strand that it has just transcribed from its genetic code as a template to assemble proteins. The cell has just transcribed this mRNA stand from its DNA, and now it translates the mRNA's nucleotide sequence into a chain of amino acids.

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps

have a great day/night :)

The mRNA is “read” according to the genetic code. This is a step in translation, the mRNA relates to the DNA sequence to the amino acid sequence in proteins
