Ribosomes contain ribosomal RNA (rRNA). Two tRNAs can be attached to ribosomes in P-site (peptidyl site) and A-site (amino-acyl site) of a ribosome.

Where does the process of translation do in mRNA?
The newly spliced mRNA binds to a ribosome. tRNA molecules migrate towards the ribosome, these tRNA molecules carries a specific amino acid. The ribosome allows two tRNA molecules into the ribosome at a time. The tRNA molecules have complementary anti-codons to the codons present on the mRNA strand. Two tRNA move into the ribosome and their anti-codons join to complementary codons on the mRNA strand. As one molecule leaves the ribosome, its amino acid forms a peptide bond with an amino acid on the adjacent tRNA molecule, with the help of ATP and an enzyme. As the ribosome moves along the the mRNA strand, a polypeptide chain is created. The ribosome stops reading the mRNA strand when it reaches a stop codon.
Trace the path of a protein from the time it is produced by a ribosome on the er until it reaches its destination?
A protein in the cell starts in the DNA. It is then translated into mRNA, goes into the ribosome, then the endoplasmic reticulum, followed by the Golgi apparatus and lastly the transport vesicles.
Can more than one ribosome at a time translate an mRNA transcript?
Yes because the ribosomes are made in the cytoplasm which allows the RNA polymerase to detect the transcrpt
What are facts about ribosomes?
Here are some facts: Ribosomes are small organelles found in the cells of all life forms. They are quite small, only AAA few hundred nanometres across. It has been theorized that ribosomes were once independent life forms, reproducing on their own, until other chemicals such as carbohydrates and DNA were brought into the fold at AAA later time. Ribosomes are composed of rRNA and other proteins. Their main function is to produce a variety of proteins from simple genetic instructions which propagate outwards from the cellular nucleolus in the form of messenger RNA. Ribosomes float in the cytoplasm of a cell or bind to the endoplasmic reticulum, ribbon like structures found inside of the cell. quick facts(written by myself) ¢Ribosome's are the workbenches where proteins get manufactured¢Ribosome composes 25% of cell mass¢ They get their name from their size.¢A bacterial cell contains a few thousands of ribosome's, although a human cell has a few million¢Ribosome's are made up of two subunits, the large and small subunit.¢When the two units are docked together with a special information unit called messenger RNA, they make proteins

What the process of translation?
Translation is the synthesis of proteins using information on the mRNA. The mRNA carries the genetic information of the DNA and contains series of base triplets. The mRNA binds to the ribosome in the cytoplasm and the tRNA binds with an animo acid before carrying it to the ribosome. Two tRNAs bind to the ribosome at the same time and a peptide bond forms between the amino acids attached to them. The first tRNA detaches from the ribosome, and the ribosome will shift along the mRNA where another tRNA with an animo acid will bind to it. This process continues to form a chain of amino acids until the STOP codon is reached.
How many molecules can attach to one active site?
There can be many but one at a time.
How are amino acids transfered to the ribosome into a growing polypeptide chain?
The ribosome uses tRNA that matches the current codon (triplet) on the mRNA to append an amino acid to the polypeptide chain. This is done for each triplet on the mRNA, while the ribosome moves towards the 3' end of the mRNA.
What is the result of the translation process?
An amino acid chain
What is a ribosome's structure?
A ribosome is composed of two parts known as the large and small subunits. Each of these is a combination of protein and a type of RNA known as rRNA. At the beginning of translation, the two subunits form a structure around the mRNA molecule as the first tRNA (the one matching the first methionine or fMet) arrives. The completed ribosome has niches that hold up to three tRNAs at a time. Because a cell has so many ribosomes at any one time, rRNA is the most common type of RNA found in cells.
What is the definition of air molecules?
is molecules around us all the time
How can lots of ribosomes speed up making proteins?
A single mRNA molecule can have more than one ribosome translating it at a time. Another ribosome can attach and start translation before the previous one has finished. Therefore the more ribosomes there are the more proteins made from a single transcript at one time.
Why couldn't Ed just bind his moms soul to a set of armour like he did to Al?
At the time Ed had barely mastered making toy dogs and birds out of random materials, and by the time he had the skill to bind a soul to armor it was too late.
Energy used in the formation of the first organic molecules is thought to have come from?
Organic molecules form out in nature all the time by various energy sources. Organic molecules (such as amino acids and nucleobases) are found in meteorites, and many organic molecules (sugars) are found even in interstellar space.
How do amino acids make up protines?
Through a process called translation. The mRNA travels from the nucleus to the cytoplasm and binds to a ribosome. The sequence of 3 nucleotides in the mRNA correspond to a certain amino acid that binds to the top of the ribosome and then the mRNA keeps getting read, 3 nucleotides at a time, until there are 20 amino acids binded together. The ribosome then lets the protein go.
Trace the path of a protein from the time it is produced by a ribosome on the er until it reaches its destination?
A protein in the cell starts in the DNA. It is then translated into mRNA, goes into the ribosome, then the endoplasmic reticulum, followed by the Golgi apparatus and lastly the transport vesicles.
