Answers (1)

Answer: (c)

Ribosomes are spherical organelles which are either free in cytoplasm or attached to rough endoplasmic reticulum which play an important role in synthesis of proteins. All enzymes are proteins but not all hormones are proteins.

Statement 3 and 4 are incorrect as ribosomes are not involved in starch molecule manufacture and all hormones are not proteins.

Therefore, option (c) is correct.
