Suppose you mix the following components of protein synthesis in a test tube: amino acids from a rabbit; ribosomes from a dog; tRNAs from a mouse; mRNA from a chimpanzee; and necessary enzymes plus an energy source from a giraffe. If protein synthesis occurs, which animal's protein will be made? (a) rabbit (b) $\operatorname{dog}(c)$ mouse (d) chimpanzee (e) giraffe
