Assembles amino acids to create proteins.
A
Ribosomes
B
Nucleus
C
Vaculoes
D
Chromatin
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A type of RNA called transfer RNA (tRNA) assembles the protein, one amino acid at a time. Protein assembly continues until the ribosome encounters a “stop” codon (a sequence of three nucleotides that does not code for an amino acid).

Detailed explanation-2: -The ribosome is universally responsible for synthesizing proteins by translating the genetic code transcribed in mRNA into an amino acid sequence.

Detailed explanation-3: -To build proteins, the two ribosomal subunits, small and large, assemble together to form the complete ribosome. It has binding sites for mRNA and transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules. The large subunit sits on top of the small subunit, with the mRNA template sandwiched in between the two.

Detailed explanation-4: -Ribosomes: Where the translation happens. Translation takes place inside structures called ribosomes, which are made of RNA and protein. Ribosomes organize translation and catalyze the reaction that joins amino acids to make a protein chain. Illustration of the molecules involved in protein translation.
