the correct amino acids won't be transfered to the ribosomes and the protein synthesis would fail. PLATO says so.

What would happen to an animal cell if it didn't have ribosomes?

Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis.If they are absent it affects the protein synthesis,which indirectly effects health.Therefore victims suffer from malnutririon such as Marasmus,Kwashiorkor.


What would happen to a animal that does not ribosomes?

I'm answering this as 'What would happen to an animal that does not have ribosomes?' Ribosomes are the main site for DNA translation, where the genetic code (held in DNA) is translated into a sequence of amino acids. Three 'bases' or segments in the DNA molecule code for one amino acid. The amino acids then join together to form proteins, the building blocks of life. Therefore, if there were no ribosomes, no proteins would be produced and, therefore, the animal would quickly die. I'm not sure if there are any animals which do not have ribosomes, and have worked out another way to synthesise DNA...


What would happen if all the ribosomes in your body disappeared?

This cannot possibly happen, so asking what would happen if it did happen is an exercise in stupidity.

Is the ribosome absent in a prokaryotic cell?

No, ribosomes are in prokaryote cells and doing the job of synthesizing proteins.
