Here are the answers to your blanks:

1. The RNA that has an amino acid attached to it, and that binds to the codon on the mRNA, is called a **tRNA** (transfer RNA).
2. **Termination** of translation happens when the ribosome hits a stop codon on the mRNA.
3. **Initiation** of translation always happens at the start codon of the mRNA.
4. Amino acids are attached to tRNA by enzymes called **aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases**.
5. The process, performed by the ribosome, of reading mRNA and synthesizing a protein is called **translation**.
