Translation is the process by which the genetic code carried by mRNA is decoded to produce a specific polypeptide or protein.
In eukaryotic cells, translation occurs in the cytoplasm, where ribosomes are located.
Ribosomes can be found floating freely in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum, forming rough ER.
The ribosome reads the sequence of mRNA and, with the help of tRNA, assembles amino acids into a polypeptide chain.
Therefore, the correct location for translation in the cell is the ribosome.
