Put the following steps of protein synthesis in order by numbering them 1-7.

mRNA moves to the cytoplasm
The polypeptide chain folds into a protein
The ribosome matches the tRNA anticodon to the mRNA codon
DNA is transcribed into mRNA in the nucleus
The ribosome attaches to the mRNA start codon
The ribosome links the amino acids on the tRNA together with peptide bombs
The ribosome releases the polypeptide chain when it arrives at a stop codon

Here are the steps of protein synthesis in the correct order:

  1. DNA is transcribed into mRNA in the nucleus.
  2. mRNA moves to the cytoplasm.
  3. The ribosome attaches to the mRNA start codon.
  4. The ribosome matches the tRNA anticodon to the mRNA codon.
  5. The ribosome links the amino acids on the tRNA together with peptide bonds.
  6. The ribosome releases the polypeptide chain when it arrives at a stop codon.
  7. The polypeptide chain folds into a protein.
