Where does RNA translation take place?
A
Nucleus
B
Cytoplasm at the ribosome
C
In the science lab
D
Amherst
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 nuclear envelope of eukaryotic cells separates the nucleus and cytoplasm. It is thought to partition transcription and processing of messenger RNAs (mRNAs), which occur in the nucleus, from protein synthesis (translation), which is observed in the cytoplasm.

Detailed explanation-3: -Translation occurs in a structure called the ribosome, which is a factory for the synthesis of proteins. The ribosome has a small and a large subunit and is a complex molecule composed of several ribosomal RNA molecules and a number of proteins.
