Which of the following elements helps in maintaining the structure of ribosomes?
A Magnesium B Zinc C Copper D Molybdenum
Show explanation
Explanation: Magnesium (Mg2+) helps maintain the structure of ribosomes by stabilizing rRNA and ribosomal subunits, which is essential for proper protein synthesis. This is in line with NCERT, which notes the importance of Mg2+ in ribosome stability during translation. The other elements—Zinc, Copper, and Molybdenum—are involved in different cellular functions (enzymes and electron transport) but are not described as maintaining ribosome structure in NCERT.
🧠 Did You Know? Ribosomes require divalent cations like magnesium to maintain their shape and function during protein production.
💡 NCERT Memory Line: Magnesium stabilizes ribosomal structure for translation.
