Where proteins are made in the cells.
A
Nucleus
B
Ribosomes
C
Mitochondria
D
Vacuoles
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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.

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: -Protein synthesis Synthesis of new proteins starts in the nucleus, where ribosomes get their instruction to begin the process. Sections of DNA (genes), encoding a specific protein, are copied over to messenger RNA (mRNA) strands in a process called transcription.

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

Detailed explanation-5: -The nucleolus is a spherical structure found in the cell’s nucleus whose primary function is to produce and assemble the cell’s ribosomes. The nucleolus is also where ribosomal RNA genes are transcribed.
