The following pertain to ribosomes during protein synthesis except
A)Contain codons within their rRNA molecules
B)Participate only in translation
C)Bind to the 5' end of mRNA by their small subunit
D)Use their large subunit to supply enzymes for peptide bonding
E)Shift toward the 3'end of the mRNA strand from one codon to the next

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ribosomes do not contain codons within their rRNA molecules. Codons are sequences of nucleotides within mRNA that code for specific amino acids during protein synthesis. Ribosomes do contain rRNA molecules that contribute to the overall structure and function of the ribosome, but they do not directly encode codons for specific amino acids.
