What is the function of a ribosome within an animal cell?
A ribosome is the centre of protein synthesis within an animal cell. Translation and transcription of DNA takes place within a ribosome, meaning the genes are read and a messengerRNA provides transfer and ribosomalRNA with the correct amino acids coded for by the gene in order to form a complete, functional protein which can then be released.
