Which of the following are stages of translation? Select all that apply. ---A tRNA binds to the second codon and its carried amino acid forms a peptide bond with methionine. ---When the ribosome reaches a stop codon, its subunits detach, and the mRNA and new polypeptide are released. ---As the ribosome moves from codon to codon, amino acids brought by successive tRNAs to the ribosome form a growing polypeptide. ---The binding of a tRNA to the third codon causes the ribosome to release the first tRNA and move to the next codon. ---Ribosomal subunits and a tRNA carrying methionine converge on the start codon of an mRNA.

Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
