Mitochondria and lysosomes

D
Ribosomes and endoplasmic reticulum
Verified step by step guidance1
Begin by understanding the process of protein synthesis, which involves transcription and translation.
Transcription occurs in the nucleus where DNA is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA).
Translation occurs in the cytoplasm where ribosomes read the mRNA sequence to synthesize proteins.
Ribosomes are the organelles where translation takes place, assembling amino acids into proteins based on the mRNA sequence.
The endoplasmic reticulum, particularly the rough ER, is involved in the folding and modification of proteins synthesized by ribosomes.
