A

Plant and animal cells

23
Q

Function of ribosomes

A

Where protein synthesis occurs

24
Q

What is protein synthesis?

A

The biological process where cells build proteins, using the genetic information encoded in DNA

25
Q

A

Plant and bacteria cells

26
Q

Function of the cell wall

A

-Provides strength to the cell
