Solution

The fundamental chemical reaction during protein synthesis is the formation of a peptide bond between a carboxyl group at the end of the polypeptide chain and a free amino group of the incoming amino acid.

Here are the steps:

  1. The process begins with the transcription of DNA into mRNA in the nucleus.

  2. The mRNA then moves out of the nucleus and into the cytoplasm, where it attaches to a ribosome.

  3. The ribosome reads the mRNA sequence and translates it into an amino acid sequence. This process is
