That depends on what part of the body (or otherwise) you're talking about. Lots of the body's structure is made from extracellular protein. A common structural extracellular protein in humans is collagen. There's also keratin. You have a number of extracellular proteins in your blood that take part in the blood clotting cascade, for example Factor VIII (which doesn't work properly in haemophiliacs). You may also secrete antibodies into your blood if you get an infection, and they're extracellular proteins too. And that's without looking at all the extracellular proteins that plants, fungi and unicellular organisms can secrete.

Is proteins the major extra cellular anion?
No; the major extracellular anion is chloride.
Are enzymes large proteins?
Yes, that is exactly what they are. Large protein machines for cellular metabolic activities.
What cellular organelle contains protein?
proteins are manufactured by ribosomes in close assocition with endoplasmic reticulum. however the proteins are processed in Golgi bodies
What is a non cellular particle made up of protein?
Do you mean what are the building block of proteins? Amino acids are the building block of proteins, and proteins are considered the "building blocks of life."
If a toxin such as a bacterial toxin destroys ribosomes what cellular activity will be affected first?
protein syntheisis b/c DNA----> RNA----> proteins from ribosomes
Is proteins the major extra cellular anion?
No; the major extracellular anion is chloride.
Which cellular organelle is best described as a factory that builds proteins?
Ribosomes are the protein factory makers
Are enzymes large proteins?
Yes, that is exactly what they are. Large protein machines for cellular metabolic activities.
What cellular organelle contains protein?

What is cellular macromolecules containing hydrogen oxygen nitrogen carbon and phosphorous.?
Nucleic Acids
What cellular organelle is composed of protein and RNA and is responsible for the synthesis of soluble proteins?
The nucleus consists of RNA and protein and is the site of ribosome production
What are hormone protein?
Proteins that act on your hormones.Hormonal proteins are proteins that can bind a hormone receptor on the cell and trigger a signal cascade to perform a cellular process such as proliferation, migration, metabolism, apoptosis and so on. Human growth factor, insulin, glucagan are few protein hormones.
What is a non cellular particle made up of protein?
Do you mean what are the building block of proteins? Amino acids are the building block of proteins, and proteins are considered the "building blocks of life."
If a toxin such as a bacterial toxin destroys ribosomes what cellular activity will be affected first?
protein syntheisis b/c DNA----> RNA----> proteins from ribosomes
Why do plants need protein?
Plants need protein for their: growth formation of green leaf root development
Why Animal need proteins?
All animals need protein because their bodies use the protein to produce energy. Without protein, animals would not be able to create the cellular reactions that sustain life.
Is the Golgi bodies the primary cellular site for the production of protein?
Proteins are mainly synthesized in the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum, or Rough ER
