Question

doctor, i cant build my proteins. my instructions are fine—ive got plenty of mrna messages—but the workers who normally read them and string together amino acids arent functioning. without them, i kinda screwed. help me! question: which structure is malfunctioning? what will happen to the cell? lysosomes; the cytoplasm will become acidic golgi apparatus; proteins wont be packaged mitochondria; atp will stop being produced ribosomes; proteins wont be made

Explanation:

Ribosomes are responsible for protein - synthesis by reading mRNA and stringing together amino acids. If they malfunction, protein synthesis will halt. Lysosomes are for digestion, Golgi apparatus for protein modification and packaging, and mitochondria for ATP production.

Answer:

D. Ribosomes; proteins won't be made
