Question

question 9 of 25
immunoglobulin is a specialized protein that binds to pathogens. its four
polypeptides are formed during translation.
which structure holds a strand of mrna during translation?
a. golgi apparatus
b. nucleus
c. ribosome
d. mitochondrion

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Translation occurs at ribosomes. Ribosomes hold mRNA and facilitate protein synthesis. The Golgi apparatus modifies proteins, the nucleus houses DNA (not directly involved in translation - mRNA is transported out), and mitochondria produce energy. So the structure that holds mRNA during translation is the ribosome.

Answer:

C. Ribosome
