(d) After translocation, the ribosome is restored to the state prevailing at the beginning of the cycle—it has peptidyl- tRNA in its P site and can accept the next aminoacyl-tRNA into its A site. But the polypeptide chain is one amino acid longer and theribosomesis one triplet further along the message
