B)ribosomes participate only in translation.
C)ribosomes bind to the 5'end of mRNA by their small subunit.

E)ribosomes shift toward the 3'end of the mRNA strand from one codon to the next.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ribosomes do not contain codons within their rRNA molecules. Codons are specific sequences of three nucleotides on mRNA that code for a particular amino acid during translation. Ribosomes play a critical role in translation by assembling amino acids into a polypeptide chain based on the sequence of codons on the mRNA strand.
