For translation to occur, the messenger RNA must bind to a(n) _____ in the cytoplasm
A)amino acid
B)nucleic acid
C)ribosome
D)peptide

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Translation is the process by which ribosomes bind with messenger RNA to synthesize proteins. Amino acids are involved in the protein synthesis process, but they do not directly facilitate the binding of mRNA to ribosomes. Nucleic acid refers to DNA and RNA, which are involved in transcription but not directly in translation. Peptide refers to a type of bond that forms between amino acids during protein synthesis, but again does not directly facilitate the binding of mRNA to ribosomes.
