Expert Solution
Step 1

Proteins are synthesized by the ribosomes in the cytoplasm. The ribosomal machinery synthesizes the proteins through the process of translation. This process synthesizes all the protein present in an organism. Ribosomal machinery is an awsome machine that synthesizes all the working proteins present inside as well as outside the cell.
