Ribosomes are structures inside the cells of certain types of organisms, including plants and animals. These structures can be loose in the cell or attached to the nuclear membrane or to the endoplasmic reticulum (another structure in the cell that is connected to the nuclear membrane, see link below for more information). When they are attached to the membrane or the endoplasmic reticulum, they can give those parts of the cell a "rough" or lumpy appearance. Ribosomes are round and are made up of two parts, which contain protein and RNA genetic material. They are responsible for protein synthesis (they make more protein) through chemical processes.

Are ribosomes like food?
No, actually ribosomes are organelles in a cell that produce protein.
What part of the human body are like ribosomes?
its calcium is like ribosomes because it builds protein into the bones and body
What is attached to membrane systems and scattered in the cytoplasm and synthesize proteins?
Ribosomes. They are the actual site of protein synthesis and float free or are attached to a membranous structure (rough ER) in the cytoplasm.
What small grain like bodies called that produce proteins inside cells?
Ribosomes.
What important process takes place at the site of ribosomes?
At the site of ribosomes, protein is produced, like the factory of a cell.
What does a Ribosomes look like in a plant cell?
Ribosomes look like granes of sand
What organelle in the cells cytoplasm makes protein for the cell?
RIBOSOMES (ribosomes are like little factories that make protein)
How is ribosomes like a zoo?
Ribosomes produce proteins. In a zoo, ribosomes would most likely be a food vendor.
Are ribosomes like food?

What are the grain like particles where proteins are made?
Ribosomes
What part of the city is related to the ribosomes?
The engineers are like the ribosomes, because they fix the town.
How are ribosomes like the liver in the human body?
ribosome are like the liver and pancreas because both make substance like ribosomes
What are two things make up ribosomes and are ribosomes surrounded by membrane like other organelles?
ribosomes are a mysterious mixture of beauty and power
What does the ribosome?
Ribosomes are made in Nucleolus and their like workers. Nucleus is like boss. They give DNA to Ribosomes to build proteins. DNA is like instructor.
How is soccer like the Ribosomes of a cell?
its not
Are ribosomes a membrane covered organelle?
No, they are not. Neither prokaryotes like bacteria nor eukaryotes (like our cells) have membrane bound ribosomes.
What part of the human body are like ribosomes?
its calcium is like ribosomes because it builds protein into the bones and body
