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).

Chromatin in case of prokaryotes is made up of?
Chromatin is made of histone proteins. It is used for DNA packing. The DNA winds around it like little spools. In eukaryotes, this occurs in the cell nucleus. Prokaryotes do not have a cell nucleus although their DNA does wrap around small structures which only resemble the histone proteins of eukaryotes.
How do prokaryotes differ from the other kingdoms?
bacteria does not have a nucleus
How does the structure of a chromosome differ in a prokayote and eukaryote?
Eukaryotic cells have a double membrane, surrounding the nucleus, the organelle that contains several chromosomes. The prokaryote chromosomes are dispersed within the cell and is not enclosed by a separate membrane
What characteristics of Eukaryotic cells gives them greater capacity for specialization than Prokaryotic cell have?
There are a couple answers I can think of at the moment. One is that eukaryotes have membrane bound organelles. This allows eukaryotes to produce more of that organelle in order to adapt to the cells needs. For instance, a muscle cell will have many more mitochondria than a epithelial cell. Eukaryotes are also much bigger than prokaryotes, leaving room for this specialization. The final way is DNA organization. The circular DNA of bacteria can encode for a limited number proteins. Plasmids can expand this a little, but it still pretty tiny compared to the capacity of eukaryotic chromosomes.
Which cell type can produce proteins?
All cell types produce proteins. Proteins do most of the work in cells and are required for the structure, function, and regulation of the bodyâ??s tissues and organs.
What do prokaryotes and eukaryotes have in commmon?
DNA, proteins, plasma membrane
Are cell structures common to both prokaryotes and eukaryotes on which proteins are made?
ribosomes
How is protein synthesis different in prokaryotes and eurkaryotes?
One way that protein synthesis differs between prokaryotes and eukaryotes is that gene groups that produce proteins are organized into operons in prokaryotes, but they are not organized into operons in eukaryotes. Also, protein synthesis in eukaryotes involves more protein and is a more intricate process than in prokaryotes.
What organelle produces proteins in cells?
mitochondria ;)
What produces proteins in the organelle?
Ribosomes produce the proteins needed in a cell
What organelle produces proteins in animal cells?
mitochondria ;)
Which organelle produces polypeptides that later become proteins?
ribosome
What are some problems that might arise if you are trying to produce a eukaryotic protein in a bacterium?
proteins are expressed differently in prokaryotes and eukaryotes
Chromatin in case of prokaryotes is made up of?
Chromatin is made of histone proteins. It is used for DNA packing. The DNA winds around it like little spools. In eukaryotes, this occurs in the cell nucleus. Prokaryotes do not have a cell nucleus although their DNA does wrap around small structures which only resemble the histone proteins of eukaryotes.
What are same between prokaryotes and eukaryotes?
1) Cell walls - Most Prokaryotes and some eukaryotes (plants and fungi) have a cell wall.However, the cell walls of prokaryotes and eukaryotes, although similar in function, are made of different types of materials. 2) Cytoplasm - Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have a fluid-like matrix that fills the cell. 3) Cytoskeleton - Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have a supportive cytoskeleton within the cell, although this feature was only recently discovered to occur within prokaryotes. 4) Extensions of the Plasma Membrane - Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells can have thin extensions of the plasma membrane supported by elements of the cytoskeleton, including flagella and cilia in eukaryotes and flagella, endoflagella, fimbriae and pili in prokaryotes. 5) Glycocalyces - There are some prokaryotes and eukaryotes that possess a glycocalyx. These sticky sugar-based structures anchor cells to each other help cells stick to surfaces and provide some protection. 6) Plasma membranes - Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have this lipid bilayer surrounding that represents the boundary between the inside and outside of the cell. 7) Ribosomes - These little protein factories are the cell's only non-membrane-bound organelle. Both prokayrotes and eukaryotes manufacture proteins, therefore both cell types possess ribosomes.
The structure in the cell that programs the formation of ribosomes is the?
Ribosomes are organelles in a cell that synthesize proteins. In prokaryotes, they are formed in the cytoplasm. In eukaryotes, they are formed in the nucleolus.
How do prokaryotes differ from the other kingdoms?
bacteria does not have a nucleus
