The components required for bacterial protein synthesis are:

1. mRNA, tRNA, and 80S ribosomes.
2. mRNA, tRNA, and 70S ribosome.
3. DNA, mRNA, cell wall, and nucleoid.
4. mRNA, tRNA, plasma membrane, and pili.


Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: The 80S ribosome is located in human cells.
Rationale 2: Three components are required for bacterial protein synthesis: messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA), transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA), and the 70S ribosome (subunits 30S and 50S).
Rationale 3: DNA and nucleoids are not among the three components required for bacterial protein synthesis.
Rationale 4: Pili, hairlike projections on the surface of some bacteria, are not among the three components are required for bacterial protein synthesis.
Global Rationale: Three components are required for bacterial protein synthesis: messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA), transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA), and the 70S ribosome (subunits 30S and 50S). The 80S ribosome is located in human cells. DNA and nucleoids are not among the three components required for bacterial protein synthesis. Pili, hairlike projections on the surface of some bacteria, are not among the three components are required for bacterial protein synthesis.
