Here's a breakdown:
* Translation: This is the process where the genetic code carried by messenger RNA (mRNA) is used to create a protein.
* Ribosomes: These are cellular organelles that act as the "factories" for protein synthesis. They bind to mRNA and use the information within it to assemble amino acids into a polypeptide chain, which ultimately folds into a functional protein.
So, the ribosome is the physical location where the protein synthesis machinery assembles the protein.
