Question

Identify the cell organelle given below.

  1. Rhizome
  2. Ribosome
  3. Lysosomes
  4. Lyzome

hintHint:

A ribosome is a complex of RNA and protein and is, therefore, known as a ribonucleoprotein. It is composed of two subunits – smaller and larger. The smaller subunit is where the mRNA binds and is decoded, and in the larger subunit, the amino acids get added.

The correct answer is: Ribosome


    • A ribosome is an intercellular structure made of both RNA and protein, and it is the site of protein synthesis in the cell.
    • The ribosome reads the messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence and translates that genetic code into a specified string of amino acids, which grow into long chains that fold to form proteins
    •  It is composed of two subunits – smaller and larger. The smaller subunit is where the mRNA binds and is decoded, and in the larger subunit, the amino acids get added.
