Answer:

Molecules & Variables

Step-by-step explanation:

Ribosomes are composed of two subunits, the large and the small subunit, both of which consist of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) molecules and a variable number of ribosomal proteins. Several factor proteins catalyze different steps of protein synthesis by binding transiently to the ribosome.
