Answers & Comments
Answer:
1. The ribosome moves forward on the mRNA, codon by codon, as it is read and translated into a polypeptide (protein chain). Then, once translation is finished, the two pieces come apart again and can be reused.
2. Peptide bond
The peptide bond is an amide bond which links amino acids together to form proteins
