In this quiz, we are going to focus on the Structure and formation of proteins. Proteins are composed of amino acids held together by peptide bonds. To make proteins, ribosomes need to be present as they are protein builders of the cell. By taking this quiz, you will get to review how well you understand the process of protein formation and amino acids. Be sure to give it a try and get to see what you may have forgotten.
