The correct answer is: Polypeptides can be produced more easily
A polypeptide can be produced more easily; when ribosomes occur in chains then the probability of formation of the polypeptide is increased because polypeptide is made up of amino acids that are present on tRNA and tRNA attached with ribosomes plays a vital role in protein synthesis.
