Answer:

The correct option is C which is, "Ribosomes are the location for protein synthesis".

Step-by-step explanation:

  • According to bacterial structure, it is prokaryotic which means it does not have a nucleus.
  • For the respiration, there are no mitochondria. Instead, citric acid cycle proceeds on the murine, cell membrane.
  • And pili are for movement but don't generate energy.
  • Hence only the correct statement is C because there are ribosomes for the translation of mRNA for the protein production.
