Final answer:

The final step in translation is when the ribosome releases the mRNA after reaching a stop codon.


Explanation:

The final step in translation is:

  1. The ribosome releases the mRNA after reaching a stop codon.
  2. The growing polypeptide is released and ribosome subunits dissociate.
  3. After many ribosomes complete translation, mRNA is degraded for reuse in transcription.
