Question

Do prokaryotic cells have ribosomes?

Answer 1

Ribosomes:

1. A ribosome is an intercellular structure made of both RNA and protein, and it is the site of protein synthesis in the cell.
2. The ribosomes of prokaryotic cells are the $70S$, which is made up of $50S$ and $30S$ subunits.
3. Eukaryotic cells have larger ribosomes ($80S$).
4. The ribosome reads the messenger RNA sequence and translates that genetic code into a specified string of amino acids, which grow into long chains that fold to form proteins.

Yes, ribosomes are present in prokaryotic cells.
