Question

Large numbers of ribosomes are present in cells that specialize in producing ___________molecules

Answer 1

Answer:

Proteins.

Explanation:

Ribosomes are complex molecules present in all living cells, they are also called organelles. It serves as the site for protein synthesis. They can be gound freely in the cytoplasm or bound to certain organelles like the endoplasmic reticulum. They consist of two major structural components: the small ribosomal subunits, which read the mRNA, and the large subunits, which join amino acids to form a polypeptide chain.

There are 3 types of Ribosomes which are:

• Ribosomes link amino acids together in the order specified by messenger RNA (mRNA).

• Each unit also consist of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) molecules and a variety of ribosomal proteins.

• Transfer ribosomes (tRNA)
