Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The process of translation happens in the ____
A
cytopalsm/nucleotide
B
cytoplasm/ribosome
C
cytoplasm/protein
D
ribosome/nucleotide
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Translation takes place on ribosomes in the cell cytoplasm, where mRNA is read and translated into the string of amino acid chains that make up the synthesized protein.

Detailed explanation-2: -The mRNA then carries the genetic information from the DNA to the cytoplasm, where translation occurs. During translation, proteins are made using the information stored in the mRNA sequence. The mRNA attaches to a structure called a ribosome that can read the genetic information.

Detailed explanation-3: -During translation, the two subunits come together around a mRNA molecule, forming a complete ribosome. The ribosome moves forward on the mRNA, codon by codon, as it is read and translated into a polypeptide (protein chain). Then, once translation is finished, the two pieces come apart again and can be reused.

Detailed explanation-4: -Ribosomes are the sites in a cell in which protein synthesis takes place.

Detailed explanation-5: -The ribosome is universally responsible for synthesizing proteins by translating the genetic code transcribed in mRNA into an amino acid sequence. Ribosomes use cellular accessory proteins, soluble transfer RNAs, and metabolic energy to accomplish the initiation, elongation, and termination of peptide synthesis.
