The proteins are synthesized at:
Correct answer: C. Ribosomes
- A. Centrosomes
- B. Golgi bodies
- C. Ribosomes
- D. Mitochondria

About Cell Structure and Function
Animal, plant, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are compared through their membranes, cell walls, nuclei and cytoplasmic organelles. The work includes the structures and functions of mitochondria, chloroplasts, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus and lysosomes, as well as chromosome organization and the distinction between chromatin and chromosomes.
