Pretins that are secreted by prokaryotes are synthesized on ribosomes that are bound to the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane.

Do prokaryotic cells have a Protein Capsid?

No, prokaryotic cells do not have a protein capsid. Protein capsids are a characteristic feature of viruses, which are non-living entities that infect cells. Prokaryotic cells, such as bacteria, are living organisms that do not possess a protein capsid.


What correctly identifies the ribsomes within the prokaryotic cell?

Ribosomes in prokaryotic cells are identified as small and numerous granules present in the cytoplasm. They are responsible for protein synthesis by translating messenger RNA into proteins. Prokaryotic ribosomes are comprised of a small 30S subunit and a large 50S subunit, with a total size of 70S.


What are the sites of protein synthesis in cells?

Protein synthesis occurs in the ribosomes of cells. In eukaryotic cells, this process mainly takes place in the cytoplasm, while in prokaryotic cells like bacteria, it occurs in the cytoplasm as well. Additionally, in eukaryotic cells, proteins that are destined for secretion or for membranes are synthesized in the rough endoplasmic reticulum.


Which of the following components is present in a prokaryotic cell?

Prokaryotic cells contain ribosomes, which are responsible for protein synthesis.


A type of protein found in eukaryotic chromosomes but not prokaryotic chromosomes is?

Histone


Which structures or molecule found on prokaryotic cell perform protein synthesis?

Prokaryotic cells have ribosomes that are responsible for protein synthesis. These ribosomes are smaller and structurally different from those found in eukaryotic cells. Ribosomes in prokaryotic cells can be free in the cytoplasm or attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum.


What do prokaryotic ribosomes do?

It has similar function in every cell.It provide surface for protein synthesize.


Which organelle produces proteins in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes?

The ribosomes are the small organelles responsible for protein synthesis. They are found in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells, but are smaller in prokaryotic cells (70s vs 80s).


Does the prokaryotic cell have endoplasmic reticulum?

No, prokaryotic cells do not have endoplasmic reticulum. The endoplasmic reticulum is a membrane-bound organelle found in eukaryotic cells that plays a role in protein and lipid synthesis. Prokaryotic cells lack membrane-bound organelles.


What is a protein made and modified here for secretion from cell?

I believe it is the Golgi Apparatus.


Prokaryotic ribosomes function?

Prokaryotic ribosomes function to translate messenger RNA into proteins during the process of protein synthesis. They consist of a large and small subunit that come together to form a functional ribosome. Prokaryotic ribosomes are smaller in size compared to eukaryotic ribosomes.


Are prions prokaryotic?

No. Prions are neither prokaryotic nor eukaryotic. They are similar to viruses - nonliving. However, they are more "nonliving" than viruses in the respect that they are just protein sans nucleic acid or anything cell-like.
