Protein synthesis is one use of energy in the body
A
False
B
True
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Protein synthesis is an exacting process that costs a living cell a great deal of energy.

Detailed explanation-2: -Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the energy currency of living cells. Even though ATP powers virtually all energy-dependent activity, most cellular ATP is utilized in protein synthesis via tRNA aminoacylation and GTP regeneration.

Detailed explanation-3: -Protein synthesis is the process in which cells make proteins. It occurs in two stages: transcription and translation. Transcription is the transfer of genetic instructions in DNA to mRNA in the nucleus. It includes three steps: initiation, elongation, and termination.

Detailed explanation-4: -The liver is one of the most important organs for making proteins. It produces or transforms millions of protein molecules each day. Proteins are made from amino acids. Some of these amino acids are already in the body.
