Solution
Ribosomes:
The ribosome is a complicated molecule made up of many ribosomal RNA molecules and a number of proteins with a small and large subunits.
Ribosomal RNAs are the most prevalent type of RNA because they are structural components of ribosomes that give the location for protein production.
Along with the rRNAs, ribosomes also contain almost 80 proteins.
New protein synthesis begins in the nucleus, where ribosomes are given an order to begin the process.
