Indicate which of the following items are associated with transcription or translation. This could be in prokaryotes or eukaryotes, or both.
Group of answer choices: Translation OR Transcription
Sigma binds to the promoter
mRNA binds to the small ribosomal subunit
Spliceosomes remove introns and splice together exons
Nucleotides are added from the 5' to 3' end
tRNA anticodon binds to the corresponding mRNA codon
STOP codon results in termination
