Explanation:

Ribozymes are RNA - molecules with catalytic activity. In the ribosome, some of the rRNAs (ribosomal RNAs) act as ribozymes and catalyze the formation of peptide bonds during protein synthesis. Proteins in the ribosome mainly provide structural support, and tRNAs are responsible for carrying amino - acids to the ribosome but do not catalyze peptide bond formation.

Answer:

some of the rRNAs in the ribosome
