Answer: A) They are the site of protein synthesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ribosomes are small round organelles attached to the endoplasmic reticulum in cells, and serve as site of protein synthesis. This is possible because the transfer RNA assembles amino acids to form polypeptide chains right in the ribosomes.

Thus, ribosomes are site of protein synthesis
