Why would there be more ribosomes in a hormone producing cell than in a skin cell?

Hormones are made from proteins and ribosomes make proteins.
The ribosomes are there to produce protein for the hormones so they can grow, repair or make new cells

The largest number of bound ribosomes most likely would be found in a cell?
Yes. Ribosomes are the organelles responsible for manufacturing proteins in a cell. Therefore, if a cell is producing a large amount of protein, it is probable that the cell has many ribosomes.
A cell with numerous ribosomes is probably specialized for?
they are specialized for protein synthesis or producing protein
Which organelles are more numerous in active cells?
If a cell is very active, it would need to have a large number of Mitochondria.
Can a cell function without Ribosomes?
Well I would assume no. Since ribosomes help produce polypeptides and proteins and these are essential to the cell, the cell would die without them. This can be further proved by the fact that all cells, prokaryotes and eukaryotes, have ribosomes.
Where in the cell are proteins made?
The DNA in the nucles us *transcribed*, producing mRNA which moves out of the nucleus into the cytoplasm. This is where *ribosomes* are located, which assemble with the mRNA and *translate* it, producing proteins.Proteins are made in the Rough ER.
Why are there more ribosomes in a hormone-producing cell than a skin cell?
Hormones are usually made out of proteins and lipids. Ribosomes make proteins. Skin is also protein. But most likely, more hormones are made in a hormone-producing cell (called an endocrine cell) in a faster turnover than a skin cell. Thus, there would need to be more ribosomes in the endocrine cell.
Why are ribosomes more in hormone producing cells than skin cells?
okay, well. Ribosomes create protein yeah? and hormones are made from protein So therefore more proteins are needed in the hormone cell then the skin cell. and least... that's my thoughts...I'm not to certain about it tho
Where do you find ribosomes in a cell?
a cell that is producing cytoplasmic enzymes

Where are the instructions for producing enzymes located at which part of the CELL1. the genome of the cell2. the cytoplasm of the cell 3. the ribosomes of the cell or 4. the mitochondria of the cell?
mitochondria
What does attached ribosomes do?
Production of proteins for the use of cell.
Why would a cell have free ribosomes?
Free Ribosomes make proteins that funciton within the the Cytosol.
Would cell die if they didn't have ribosomes?
yes
Why cant you live without Ribosomes?
because ribosomes they produce the proteins and without protein we would start to slowly die
What produces membrane and endoplasmic reticulum?
The ribosomes are responsible for protein production in the cell, and are thus instrumental in producing membrane and endoplasmic reticulum.
