Hi!


The cell would most likely be unable to synthesize proteins for both internal and for external use, and will consequently not be able to sustain itself.

Ribosomes play an essential role in the process of translation through which the code on an mRNA molecule is translated into a protein. Proteins have an indispensable role in intracellular chemical process, and are required by the cell for its repair.


Hope this helps!
