Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation can be defined as the synthesis of polypeptide chains (protein) from mRNA in the ribosome.

For the initiation steps in translation in prokaryotes

The small ribosomal subunit first binds to mRNA.

For the elongation process

It involves the movement of the tRNAs from the sites ( P, A and E) till they leave the ribosome - translocation of ribosome binding of second aminoacyl trna.
