Question

the image shows the translation process in a eukaryotic cell.what step ends translation?○ addition of an amino acid into the growing peptide chain○ separation of mrna from the ribosome when a stop codon is reached○ detachment of trnas from the ribosome○ connection of trna anticodons with codons on mrna

Explanation:

Translation ends when a stop codon (UAA, UAG, UGA) on the mRNA is reached. At this point, the mRNA separates from the ribosome, and the newly formed polypeptide chain is released, terminating the translation process. The other options describe steps that occur during the elongation or initiation phases of translation, not the termination step that ends the process.

Answer:

separation of mRNA from the ribosome when a stop codon is reached
