YES! Bacteria do have ribosomes. The ribosomes take about 30% of the whole bacterium's weight. Approximately 10,000 ribosomes are in one bacterium cell.

Ribosomes play a huge part in protein synthesis and are required for cells to build up the structural and functional proteins they require. Bacteria cells do contain ribosomes floating in the cytoplasm rather than on the rough endoplasmic reticulum like in eukaryotic cells. Note that there would be many ribosomes rather than just one.

The ribosomes in bacterial cells do the same job as ribosomes in human and animal cells; they are "sites of translation (protein synthesis)".

b) Antibiotics destroy a bacterial infection by disabling ribosomes in the bacteria. Eukarotic cells contain mitochondria that themselves contain ribosomes while bacterial cells have no organelles and thus have uncontained ribosomes. How do chemists use this fact to create antibiotics that can destroy a bacterial infection without harming human cells?


Do all cells need nucleolus?

Not all cells need a nucleolus. For example, bacterial cells do not have a nucleolus. A nucleolus is a dense body within the nucleus which is where ribosomes are formed. As viral cells do not create ribosomes, they do not need a nucleolus either...


What important process is disrupted in bacterial cells when bacterial ribosomes are disabled by antibiotics?

The synthesis of proteins, of course. The ribosomes are the " workbench " on which proteins are synthesized. Without proteins for construction and enzymes the bacteria is in real trouble.
