Which organelle is where protein synthesis happens?
A
Chloroplast
B
Mitochondria
C
Ribosome
D
Nucleus
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The process of protein synthesis occurs in ribosomes. Ribosomes are either floating freely in the cytoplasm or found attached to the endoplasmic reticulum.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -Ribosomes, large complexes of protein and ribonucleic acid (RNA), are the cellular organelles responsible for protein synthesis.
