Mitochondria contain their own DNA and ribosomes for protein

Mitochondria contain their own DNA and ribosomes for protein synthesis of a number of proteins they require However a larger number of proteins are actually coded for in the nucleus of the cell are synthesized in the cytoplasm and are then transported to mitochondria Based on what you know about protein transport processes how do you think these proteins most likely make their way to mitochondria O They are marked by signal sequences that direct them to the mitochondria O Simple diffusion O Ribosomes attach directly to mitochondria and synthesize the proteins into their interior O Random movement of transport vesicles 2 pts D
