Question Answer
Step 1 mRNA copy of gene made in nucleus

Step 3 So far= transcription. Now translation mRNA attaches to ribosome on RER, ribosome reads instruction to assemble protein
Step 4 Insulin molecules 'pinched off' in vesicles and travel towards golgi apparatus
Step 5 vesicle fuses with golgi which processes and packages protein ready for use
Step 6 Packaged protein molecules 'pinched off' in vesicles from Golgi Apparatus and move towards cell surface membrane. Cell membrane opens to release protein
