Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the role of tRNA in translation: tRNA molecules bring amino acids to the ribosome, where proteins are synthesized.
Identify the three sites on the ribosome: A site (Aminoacyl site), P site (Peptidyl site), and E site (Exit site).
Recognize the sequence of tRNA movement: Initially, a tRNA carrying an amino acid enters the A site.
Next, the tRNA moves to the P site, where its amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain.
Finally, the tRNA, now without an amino acid, moves to the E site before exiting the ribosome.
