Question

How are ribosomes created in bacteria?

Answer 1

Ribosome

1. Ribosome is a cell organelle found freely in the cytoplasm or attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
2. It is a cell organelle found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
3. It is a membrane-less organelle involved in protein synthesis.
4. They are made up of ribosomal RNA and proteins.
5. Bacteria lack a nucleus, so the assemblage of the ribosomal proteins and rRNA occurs in the cytoplasm only.
6. They assemble and form ribosomal subunits, which in turn assemble to form the ribosomes in the cytoplasm itself.
