Chapter 21, Problem 7SQ
Summary Introduction
Introduction: The process where the codons in the mRNA are translated with the help of ribosomes and tRNA to synthesize amino acid sequence is called protein synthesis; the amino acids are linked by a peptide bond to make the polypeptide chain that constitutes the proteins.
