By the way, to answer the question â I have read accounts of explorers like Scott and Shackleton whose men were forced to eat penguins to survive. By all reports, they were greasy and not very tasty. Be warned.
Translation. The mRNA formed in transcription is transported out of the nucleus, into the cytoplasm, to the ribosome (the cell's protein synthesis factory). Here, it directs protein synthesis. Messenger RNA is not directly involved in protein synthesis â transfer RNA (tRNA) is required for this. The process by which mRNA directs protein synthesis with the assistance of tRNA is called translation. The ribosome is a very large complex of RNA and protein molecules. Each three-base stretch of mRNA (triplet) is known as a codon, and one codon contains the information for a specific amino acid.
  Transcription is the rewriting of the DNA into mRNA, which occurs on the DNA coils in the nucleus (but not the nucleolus). Translation is the process of converting the â¦ mRNA into a protein strand, which occurs on the ribosomes either in the cytoplasm or on the rough endoplasmic reticulum. In eukaryotic cells, transcription occurs in the nucleus from which the transcript it transported to the cytoplasm where translation occurs.     In prokaryotic ce â¦ lls, transcription and translation both take place in the cytoplasm. + 15 others found this useful.
