Ribosome in a eukaryote is formed in the cytoplasm and definitely not in the nucleolus of the nucleus . There seems to be a confusion between ribosomes and ribosomal sub units . Ribosomal sub units are indeed formed in the ncleolus . yes , agreed . But when some body raises a questions 'Where exactly ribosomes are formed ' ? The answer is - cytoplasm and definitely not nucleolus . What do my friends who read this say !!!

Do all cells need nucleolus?

Not all cells need a nucleolus. For example, bacterial cells do not have a nucleolus. A nucleolus is a dense body within the nucleus which is where ribosomes are formed. As viral cells do not create ribosomes, they do not need a nucleolus either...


What is the Ribosomes found in?

Cells are not found in ribosomes. Ribosomes are found in (eukaryotic) cells.


Are ribosomes found in prokaryotic cells?

Yes, ribosomes are found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. However, prokaryotic cells have smaller ribosomes compared to eukaryotic cells. Ribosomes are essential for protein synthesis in all living cells.


What is a function of a ribosomes in cells?

The function of the ribosomes in cells is to make proteins. Ribosomes are made up of proteins and RNA.


Are ribosomes in animal cells or plant?

Ribosomes are in both plant and animal cells.


Is the Ribosomes?

The terms eukaryotic and prokaryotic only apply to cells - ribosomes themselves aren't cells. Ribosomes are parts of cells, which can be either prokaryotic or eukaryotic.


Do plant and animal Cells have ribosomes?

Yes, in fact there are ribosomes in both plant and animal cells. That's right. Ribosomes are the site of synthesis of polypeptide chains; proteins are formed from polypeptide chains. Both animals and plants need proteins for many purposes, not least as enzymes. There are also ribosomes in prokaryotic cells, but these are smaller. The ribosomes in prokaryotes have a sedimentation rate of 70S (Svedberg units); eukaryotes have 80S ribosomes. They are the sites of protein synthesis, which makes them as important as other cell organelles.yes


What type of cell is ribosomes?

Ribosomes are organelles. All cells have ribosomes.


The components of ribosomes are formed by?

The components of ribosomes are formed by a type of RNA called ribosomal RNA (rRNA), along with proteins. These two types of molecules come together to create the functional unit of ribosomes that play a central role in protein synthesis within cells.


What does the cells ribosomes do in the plant cell?

The ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis.


What is Function of ribosomes in plant cells and animal cells?

Ribosomes are dense-looking granules formed of two parts. They may be attached to the endoplasmic reticulum or free in the cytoplasm. Ribosomes are the sites where amino acids are assembled into proteins in the process of protein synthesis. For more information visit the Related Link.


Do cells need ribosomes?

All living cells have ribosomes. The ribosomes are the " workbench " upon which proteins are synthesized. The ribosome has catabolic RNA to aid in this task and without ribosomes I can not see proteins being made, so ribosomes are vital to all living cells.
