Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The three stages of translation are initiation, chain elongation, and termination. During initiation, the small ribosomal subunit attaches to mRNA and the initiator tRNA binds to the start codon. During chain elongation, amino acids are added to the growing polypeptide chain as the ribosome moves along the mRNA. This process involves codon-anticodon pairing, peptide bond formation, and translocation. Finally, during termination, the ribosome reaches a stop codon and the polypeptide is released.
