Ribosomes By: Wesley Waters and Alex Roesner
Looks • Ribosomes are usually interpreted as blue, and green or yellow. • Ribosomes are protein makers in the cell. • It looks like a tiny grain of sand
Location in Cell • Ribosomes come in two types free or attached. • Ribosomes that are free are found in the cytoplasm. But attached Ribosomes are connected directly to the endoplasmic reticulum. • Ribosomes are located inside the cell membrane.
Functions • Ribosomes are the location of amino-acid with in the cell. • The more Ribosomes within a given cell, the more protein production there is within the cell. • They are the most numerous organelles in almost all cells • They are made in small and large subunits
Kinds of Cells • Eukaryotic cells have ribosomes • Prokaryotic cells have ribosomes but they are smaller then eukaryotic ribosomes at a 9:16 ratio • There are ribosomes in both plant and animal cells • Animal cell Plant cell
