Question

The peptide synthesis inside a cell takes place in
A)Ribosomes
B)Chloroplast
C)Mitochondria
D)Chromoplast

Answer 1

Hint: The peptides are smaller than that of the proteins. The peptides are the molecules that consist of between two and fifty amino acids. The peptides are biologically and medically important molecules. They naturally occur within the organisms, plus at lab-synthesized compounds are active when introduced into a body. The peptides act as the structural components of the cells and the tissues, hormones, toxins, antibiotics, and enzymes.

Complete answer:
The process of peptide synthesis is the making of short sequences of the polypeptides by adding one amino acid at a time. This process is useful for creating specific sequences that represent the epitopes of certain protein domains that may or may not be modified by the moieties, such as the phosphate groups. The peptides are proteins present in the uncoiled form; hence the ribosome is the main site for the protein synthesis. We can consider ribosome as the site for the peptide synthesis.
The protein synthesis is carried out by the ribosomes on the mRNA template. The mRNA carries genetically coded information for protein synthesis which is translated by the ribosomes.

The ribosome is universally responsible for the synthesizing proteins by translating the genetic code transcribed in mRNA into an amino acid sequence. The ribosomes use cellular accessory proteins, soluble transfer RNAs, and metabolic energy to accomplish the initiation, elongation, and termination of the peptide synthesis.

Hence, the correct answer is option (A)

Note: The side effects of peptides are as follows:
1.Itchiness at the injection area.
2.Increased water retention
3.Increased in hunger.
4.Drying mouth.
