Answer:
B
Solution:

The steps of the translation mechanism are:

Activation of amino acids: In the presence of enzyme aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (E), a specific amino acid (AA) binds with ATP.

AA1 + ATP →Mg+2Aminoacyl synthetase AA1-AMP-Enzyme complex + PPi
 
b) Charging of tRNA: The AA1–AMP–E1 complex reacts with specific tRNA. Thus, the amino acid is transferred to tRNA. As a result, the enzyme and AMP are liberated. It is also called aminoacylation of tRNA.

AA1-AMP-Enzyme complex + tRNA →AA1-tRNA + AMP + Enzyme
