The major function of ribosomes is to
A
Make fats
B
Synthesize protein
C
Digest protein
D
Make sugars
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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.

Detailed explanation-2: -Ribosomes have two main functions-decoding the message and the formation of peptide bonds. These two activities reside in two large ribonucleoprotein particles (RNPs) of unequal size, the ribosomal subunits.

Detailed explanation-3: -Protein synthesis is the process of making proteins. Protein synthesis is essential to cell structure and function because without this process the cell would not have the important proteins it needs.

Detailed explanation-4: -The function of ribosomes is to synthesize proteins in the cell.
