Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Protein synthesis is a complex process it essentially involves DNA for the synthesis of mRNA (transcription) which containsn information for the synthesis of proteins (translation). The process of translation takes place on ribosomes which are found in cytoplasm (in attached form on ER) and in mitochondria ( in the free form).
