Velma is developing a computer model of translation Her instructor points out that the model does not include ribosomes or ribosomal RNA. If the model is accurate in other ways , how does the absence of ribosomes and ribosomal RNA affect it? A. Certain amino acids would be missing from the polypeptides. B. The polypeptides would be much longer than normal. C. Amino acids would be joined together in an incorrect order. D. Amino acids would not join together, and no polypeptides would form.

Answer 1

D. Amino acids would not join together, and no polypeptides would form.

Answer 2

Ribosomes and ribosomal RNA (rRNA) play a crucial role in the process of translation, which is the synthesis of proteins from mRNA. Ribosomes are the sites where translation occurs, and rRNA is a component of the ribosome that helps to catalyze the formation of peptide bonds between amino acids. Without ribosomes and rRNA, the process of translation cannot occur. This means that amino acids would not be able to join together to form polypeptides. Therefore, the absence of ribosomes and rRNA in Velma's model would mean that no polypeptides would form, regardless of the accuracy of the rest of the model.
