Question

Part D elongation steps The tiles below depict translation events during roughly two cycles of elongation. Each cycle adds a Leucine (Leu) amino acid to the polypeptide. Arrange the steps into their correct sequence. Place the first step at the far left. Do not overlap any tiles

Answer 1

Naming the top tiles 1-4 from left to right and bottom two tiles 5-6 from left to right.

So the correct sequence of the steps in the process of translation are---

1-----5----6----4----3----2

First the initiator tRNA binds to the ribosome .Then the next charged tRNA binds to the A site.The initiator tRNA transfers the amino acid to the tRNA at A site and then moves to E site .At the same time; the receiver tRNA moves to the P site.In this way ; the cycle is repeated till a stop codon binds to the ribosome and stops the process of translation.
