Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The main role of the 40S ribosome is to be stated.
Concept Introduction:
Translation is a process which is used to synthesize specific protein from mRNA. It occurs in four steps. The first step is initiation; the second step is elongation, the third step is termination and then recycling is the final step. The ribosomal subunits for translation are 60S and 40S ribosomes.
(b)
Interpretation:
The main role of the 60S ribosome is to be stated.
