Answer:

Protein synthesis (translation)

Explanation:

Ribosomes may be present free in the cytoplasm or are present on the surface of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Protein synthesis is the process of synthesis of new proteins wherein the mRNA serves as a template and specifies the amino acid sequence of the proteins.

The mRNA joins ribosomes present in the cytoplasm or on rough ER to initiate the process of protein synthesis. The ribosome moves along mRNA to expose the mRNA codes to the tRNA which in turn carries the respective amino acids from the cell pool. In this way, ribosomes serve as a site for protein synthesis.

Description of a blue shark
Westkost [7]

The aerodynamic shape and lightness of the blue shark body allow it to move “elegantly” across the oceans. It exhibits countershading like many other sharks. The upper part is an indigo blue tone while the ventral and the sides are white.

It has a long caudal heterocercal fin. The second dorsal fin measures almost half the size of the first and its pectoral fins are unusually long compared to other sharks. Its eyes are large, its teeth are triangular, and it has a conical snout.

It reaches a length ranging from 3.8 to 4 meters and weighs about 240 kilograms. This species presents slight sexual dimorphism since the female tends to measure little more than 1 meter in comparison with the male.
