The correct answer is D 9. Translation, the process of building proteins from amino acids based on the mRNA sequence, occurs on ribosomes (typically labeled as organelle number 9 in many diagrams). Ribosomes can be found floating freely in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum, but their primary function is in protein synthesis.
