Ribosomes are cellular structures that assemble large protein molecules from smaller amino acid molecules.

Because molecules are being built, these reactions are anabolism. I used to always remember that anabolism was like the word "add" ... molecules are added together to become bigger molecules ... add-abolism.
Then catabolism is the other one, so catabolism must be the reactions that break molecules apart. You really only have to remember one of the terms.

Ribosomes make proteins from amino acids. The process is called translation.
The process for producing messenger RNA is called transcription.

metabolism, as mentioned above, is a general term that encompasses many cellular processes, but the specific reaction that takes place at ribosomes is translation.

Are you cheating? why the surprising surge in college questions. Oh and BTW you need to no longer have faith something you examine on the internet 'cos you will get a incorrect answer ninety% of the time
