Each stage of transcription?

What is stage 1- section of DNA with a gene is copied, mRNA is formed, stage 2- mRNA carries the DNA copy to the cytoplasm, stage 3- mRNA is fed through the ribosome 3 at a time, stage 4- tRNA bring the right amino acid from cytoplasm, stage 5- tRNA drops amino acids off at the ribosome, stage 6- the amino acids are linked together to form a long protein chain.
