Ribosomes can be found on or in which of following:
[Select any/all that apply.]
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
rough endoplasmic reticulum
lysosomes
nucleolus
prokaryotic cells
mitochondria
peroxisome
cytosol
Each ribosome is specific for a particular type of protein where the ribosomes of the cytolasm are responsible for the synthesis of proteins that stay in the cell while ribosmes of the ER synthesize secretory proteins.
Select one:
True
False
Ribosome, mitochondria, and golgi bodies are structures in cell whose forms dictate their physical functions. Describe their function in relation to their structure.
