Label the steps of translation that led to gene expression.
A peptide bond is created between the first two amino acids formed.
Once a protein is formed, the gene for a particular trait is expressed.
A chain of amino acids is formed, creating a protein.

1. Initiation — The first codon of mRNA (AUG) pairs with the anticodon of the initiator tRNA (carrying methionine), and the ribosome assembles.
2. Early elongation — A peptide bond is created between the first two amino acids.
3. Elongation/termination — A growing chain of amino acids is formed until a stop codon is reached and the completed polypeptide (protein) is released.
4. Expression — Once the protein is formed (and often folded/modified), the gene’s product can carry out its function, so the gene is expressed.
