Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the function of ribosomes in the cell? (2019)
  • Step 1: Understand that ribosomes are small structures found in cells.
  • Step 2: Know that ribosomes are responsible for making proteins.
  • Step 3: Learn that they do this by reading a type of genetic material called messenger RNA (mRNA).
  • Step 4: Realize that the ribosomes use the information from mRNA to link together building blocks called amino acids.
  • Step 5: Understand that these linked amino acids form long chains called polypeptides, which fold into proteins.
