The correct answer is translation.
Translation is the process in which the information encoded in messenger RNA (mRNA) is used to create a corresponding sequence of amino acids, forming a protein. This process occurs in the ribosome, where the mRNA is read in sets of three nucleotides (codons) that specify which amino acids will be added to the growing polypeptide chain.
