Which of the following statements concerning ribosomes is true? A. Several ribosomes are often attached to and translating the same MRNA.
B. Ribosomes join amino acids together to form a polypeptide.
C. Ribosomes have one binding site for MRNA and three binding sites for 1RNA molecules.
D. Ribosomes are the organelles responsible for protein synthesis.
E. All of the above statements are true.

Ribosomes are complicated macro molecules composed up of nucleic acids and proteins. They are important as they perform a major role in protein assembly and transportation.

The correct answer is:

Option E. All of the above statements is true.

The explanation for the above option is:

Therefore all the above statements are true for ribosomes.

E. All of the above statements are

Explanation:

Ribosomes are organelles found free floating in the cytoplasm or attached to endoplasmic reticulum (RER). They are the site of protein synthesis in a cell. Ribosomes initiate the translation process by binding to the mRNA molecule using their mRNA binding site. Several ribosomes called POLYSOMES are often attached to and translating the same MRNA molecule.

A ribosome contains four (4) binding sites; one for the mRNA and three (P-site, A-site and E-site) for tRNA, which are small RNA molecules that carry and add amino acid to the growing polypeptide chain during the process. In a nutshell, the ribosome via the aid of tRNA is responsible for joining amino acids together to form a polypeptide chain (future protein).
