A free ribosome is a ribosome that is not attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum and is thus suspended in the cytoplasm.

What is the job of the ribosome cell?

The ribosome is a small organelle which can be a "free" ribsome or an "attached" ribosome. The ribosome makes protein that is nessacary for the cell to carry out their processes. If a ribosome is free, then it floats around in a gelatin-like substance called cytoplasm in the cell. If a ribosome is attached, then it is located on the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). If their is a ribosome attached to it, then it is considered the rough endoplasmic reticululm (RER). If their is no ribosome, then it is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER).

Where do the two subunits of the ribosome join?

They are free in the cytoplsm.When protein synthesis begins two parts combine.

Is ribosomes a nuclear organelle?

No. Ribosomes are classified as being either "free" or "membrane-bound". Free ribosomes can move about anywhere in the cytosol, but are excluded from the cell nucleus and other organelles. When a ribosome begins to synthesize proteins that are needed in some organelles, the ribosome making this protein can become "membrane-bound".
