KROK 1 2015 – Question 5 · KROK (Medicine) · Biological Chemistry
A patient has decreased concentration of magnesium ions that are required for ribosomes connection to granular endoplasmic reticulum. This condition is known to disrupt the process of protein biosynthesis. Disruption occurs at the following stage:
- A. Amino acids activation
- B. Replication
- C. Transcription
- D. Processing
- E. Translation
Hint
Think about where each stage of protein biosynthesis takes place in the cell and which stage actually needs ribosomes bound to the membrane.
The answer, the explanation and a note on every option are available once you log in. The account is free: topic tests, a mock exam, mistake review and statistics.
