Site of protein synthesis in cells are:
Correct answer: A. Ribosomes
- A. Ribosomes
- B. Endoplasmic Reticulum
- C. Nucleolus
- D. Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
Explanation
The site of protein synthesis in the cell are ribosomes. These are present attached to the surface of the rough endoplasmic reticulum and also in the free state in the cytoplasm. These organelles are involved in the process of translation which is the conversion of the mRNA to protein.
