Ribosomes translate mRNA to proteins. In eukaryotic cells, the ribosomes attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) produce proteins that are either to become part of organelles (such as lysosomes), the plasma membrane, or secreted from the cell. The free, or soluble, ribosomes found in the cytosol produce proteins that remain in the cytosol, e.g., the enzymes involved in glycolysis.

What are ribosomes composed of?

Ribosomes are composed of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and protein molecules. The rRNA molecules help in the assembly and functioning of the ribosomes, while the protein molecules support the structural integrity of the ribosomes and aid in protein synthesis.


Molecules bring to the ribosomes?

Messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules bring the genetic code from the DNA in the nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm. Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules bring amino acids to the ribosomes during protein synthesis. Ribosomes use these molecules to build proteins according to the mRNA code.


What is the molecules rRNA a component of?

RIBOSOMES!


What are three characteristics of bio-molecules?

Bio molecules are large, complex moleucles build from smaller, simpler, repeating units. Most bio molecules contain carbon atoms that are bonded together in chains and rings.


Where are the ribosomes composed of?

Ribosomes are composed of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and proteins. The rRNA molecules are synthesized in the nucleolus of the cell and then combine with proteins to form the ribosomes in the cytoplasm.


What is involved in making ribosomes in the cell located in the nucleus of a cell?

Ribosomes are made in the nucleus by RNA polymerase enzymes transcribing DNA into ribosomal RNA (rRNA) molecules. These rRNA molecules then combine with proteins to form ribosomes. The ribosomes are then transported out of the nucleus into the cytoplasm, where they carry out protein synthesis.


Were in the cell are protein molecules formed?

Proteins are formed in the ribosomes.


How many atoms are involved in forming bio-molecules what are this atoms?

Each bio-molecule has a specific chemical formula and a different number of atoms; generally bio-molecules contain C, H, O, N.


What does the attached ribosomes do for the cell?

Ribosomes are involved in protein synthesis - the process of assembling proteins from molecules called amino acids


How can one type of atom be the basic of so many types of bio molecules?

There are 2 types of atoms and these make up the different bio molecules when combined


What are bio-molecules?

A bio-molecule is a chemical molecule that naturally occurs in living organisms. Bio-molecules consist primarily of carbon and hydrogen, along with nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus and sulfur. Other elements sometimes are incorporated but are much less common.


Are bio molecules organic or inorganic?
