What is the difference between ribosomes in the cytosol and ribosomes in er?
The 'free' ribosomes are for local use within the cell, whereas the ribosomes attached to the ER are transported to other parts of the cell or transported away from the cell.
Where are ribosomes location in the cell?
Ribosomes come in two types, free or attached. Free ribosomes are found throughout the cytoplasm while attached ribosomes are connected directly to the endoplasmic reticulum.
Are free ribosomes found in a cell's cytoplasm?
Yes there are free ribosomes. But many are attached to ER
Which cell structures are attached to the endoplasmic reticulum?
Nucleus and ribosomes.
What is attached together by a ribosome?
Bound ribosomes are found on the rough endoplasmic reticulum in a cell. Free ribosomes are found scattered throughout the cell.
What is a bound ribosomes?
Ribosomes are microscopic particles that are responsible for protein synthesis. Membrane-bound ribosomes are ribosomes that are attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum of the cell.
How are endoplasmic reticulum and ribosomes related?
some ER have ribosomes attached, if proteins need to be secreted out of the cell
Is a ribosome an animal cell?
yes, there two types of ribosomes , free or attached. Free ribosomes are found throughout the cytoplasm while attached ribosomes are connected directly to the endoplasmic reticulum
What does attached ribosomes do?
Production of proteins for the use of cell.
What part of the cell are proteins made from?
Proteins are translated from mRNA in ribosomes. They can either be free-floating ribosomes in the cytosol, or attached ribosomes on the rough ER.
When ribosomes in a cell's cytoplasm are attached to an organellethat organelle now studded with ribosomes is then called rough?
Endoplasmic reticulumn
What is the difference in function between free ribosomes and attached ribosomes?
Free ribosomes are found in the cytosol, which is the fluid portion of the cytoplasm, and are responsible for manufacturing proteins that will function as http://www.answers.com/topic/soluble proteins within the cytoplasm or form structural elements, including the cytoskeleton, that are found within the cytosol.
