Protein synthesis:
A)in bacteria can occur with several ribosomes attached to the same mRNA molecule
B)uses very little of a bacterial cell's energy
C)can occur at the same time as an mRNA is being transcribed
D)two of these

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Both A and C are true statements about protein synthesis. The process in bacteria can involve multiple ribosomes simultaneously translating the same mRNA molecule, and it can occur concurrently with transcription. However, protein synthesis does require a significant amount of a cell's energy, so B is false. Therefore, the best choice is D, as both A and C are correct.
