Answer:

A) Cell growth and repair would slow or stop.

Explanation:

Ribosomes are tiny biological structures present in the cytoplasm of a cell and comprise bio molecules like RNA and some proteins. Ribosomes along with mRNA and tRNA participate in translation i.e. protein synthesis.

We all know that hormones which are responsible for growth are largely proteins. Also the enzymes which repair damaged cell/tissue in the body of an organism are also proteins. So, in case ribosomes of a cell will be damaged or become malfunctional then the cell growth and repair will either slow down or  it will halt completely.

Greetings!

Option A would be correct. The most likely outcome, (if) ribosomes stopped functioning properly, would be Cell growth stopping, or slowing down.

<u></u>

<h3>What do you mean by bacterium?</h3>
  • Any of a large group of one-celled organisms that reproduce by fission or by generating spores, lack a cell nucleus, and occasionally cause disease.
  • They are the most prevalent life forms on Earth, present in all living organisms as well as all climatic conditions.

<h3>What can be discovered in bacteria?</h3>
  • Its gel-like matrix, which also contains other cell components like ribosomes, chromosomes, and plasmids, is made up of water, enzymes, nutrients, waste products, and gases.
  • The cytoplasm and all of its elements are enclosed by the cell membrane.
  • Bacteria do not have a nucleus that is contained in a membrane like eukaryotic (true) cells do.
