Which of the following event(s) occur(s) during translation in prokaryotes?

(A) tRNA binding to the start codon of mRNA on the 30S subunit of the ribosome
(B) Anticodon of tRNA binding to the start codon of mRNA on the 50S subunit of the ribosome
(C) The ribosome continues to move along the mRNA to add new amino acids to the polypeptide

Answer: (A) tRNA binding to the start codon of mRNA on the 30S subunit of the ribosome
(C) The ribosome continues to move along the mRNA to add new amino acids to the polypeptide
(D) The polypeptide is released when the ribosome reaches the stop codon

Explanation:
During prokaryotic translation, the tRNA binds to the start codon on the 30S subunit, the ribosome moves along the mRNA to add amino acids, and the polypeptide is released when a stop codon is reached.
