What is the process by which a ribosome, using genetic information coded in messenger RNA, constructs proteins from amino acids?

The correct answer is translation.
Translation is the process where ribosomes read the sequence of messenger RNA (mRNA) and use it to assemble amino acids into a protein. During this process, transfer RNA (tRNA) brings the appropriate amino acids to the ribosome, matching them to the codons (three-nucleotide sequences) on the mRNA, ultimately forming a polypeptide chain that will fold into a functional protein.
