The correct Answer is:
To arrange the steps of protein synthesis in the correct sequence, we need to understand the process clearly. Here are the steps provided in the question: 1. Codon-anticodon reaction between mRNA and aminoacyl tRNA complex. 2. Attachment of mRNA and smaller sub-unit of ribosome. 3. Charging or aminoacylation of tRNA. 4. Attachment of larger sub-unit of ribosome to the mRNA-tRNA `_("Met")` complex. 5. Linking of adjacent amino acids. 6. Formation of polypeptide chain. ### Step-by-Step Solution: **Step 1: Charging of tRNA** - The first step in protein synthesis is the charging or aminoacylation of tRNA. This involves the attachment of the correct amino acid to its corresponding tRNA molecule. **Step 2: Attachment of mRNA and the smaller sub-unit of ribosome** - After the tRNA is charged, the next step is the attachment of the mRNA to the smaller sub-unit of the ribosome. This is crucial for the initiation of translation. **Step 3: Attachment of larger sub-unit of ribosome** - Once the mRNA is bound to the smaller ribosomal sub-unit, the larger sub-unit of the ribosome attaches to form a complete ribosome ready for translation. **Step 4: Codon-anticodon reaction** - The charged tRNA then pairs with the mRNA at the ribosome through a codon-anticodon interaction. This ensures that the correct amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain. **Step 5: Linking of adjacent amino acids** - As the ribosome moves along the mRNA, adjacent amino acids are linked together through peptide bonds, facilitated by the ribosome. **Step 6: Formation of polypeptide chain** - Finally, this process continues until a complete polypeptide chain is formed, which will fold into a functional protein. ### Correct Sequence: The correct sequence of steps is: 3 (Charging of tRNA) → 2 (Attachment of mRNA and smaller sub-unit of ribosome) → 4 (Attachment of larger sub-unit of ribosome) → 1 (Codon-anticodon reaction) → 5 (Linking of adjacent amino acids) → 6 (Formation of polypeptide chain). ### Final Answer: The correct option is: **3 → 2 → 4 → 1 → 5 → 6** ---
