Correct Answer: polysomes


Solution : The correct option is polysomes.

Polysomes, also known as polyribosomes, are clusters of ribosomes that are attached to a single mRNA (messenger RNA) molecule. These ribosomes work together to synthesise multiple copies of the same protein simultaneously by translating the mRNA's genetic code. Polysomes are an essential part of protein synthesis in cells and are often found in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms.
