Ribosomes are responsible for one of the most fundamental processes required for cells to live. Without ribsomes, they couldn't translate the genetic code into proteins which can carry out reactions that do not occur spontaneously (i.e. without a little "encouraging push").

Hence, all cells contain ribosomes. In fact, we only know two major categories of ribosomes - 80S and 70S ribosomes. 80S are larger and found in eukaryote cells (yeast, fungi, animals, plants), while 70S are smaller and found in prokaryotes (archaea, bacteria - but also mitochondria and plastids inside eukaryotes! This is a strong argument in favour of the "endosymbiont theory").

Eukaryotic Cell Nuclei Genomes produce, or transcribe, [coded from the Dna] messenger Rnas that are delivered to the Ribosomes for translation into proteins.

"All cells except red blood cells": you are referring to the Nucleus.

All living cells contain ribosomes. Ribosomes are found bound to the endoplasmic reticulum and the nuclear envelope, they are also freely scattered throughout the cytoplasm, depending upon whether the cell is plant, animal, or bacteria.

All cells have at least one ribosome. They make proteins for the cell to use.

Yes!! all cells have those types of organelles!


What structures do the two types of cells have in common?

If by "the two types of cells" you mean plant and animal, then: Nucleus Mitochondria Cell membrane Endoplasmic Reticulum Ribosomes Vacuole Golgi Bodies/Apparatus Lysosomes (more common in animal cells) Only plant cells have cell walls and chloroplasts. If you mean Prokaryotes vs. Eukaryotes: Eukaryotic cells contain what is shown above. Prokaryotic cells contain nothing but nuclear information floating free (nucleoid) and ribosomes surrounded by a cell membrane and wall. They also have a flagellum to move about with. All cells contain cytoplasm.


In what types of cells do you find large numbers of ribosomes?

Large numbers of ribosomes are present in cells that specialize in producing protein molecules. The mitochondrion contains its own DNA and ribosomes.


Mitochondria contain their own so they can produce their own proteins?

Dna.They have circular DNA.Also have 70s ribosomes
