Question

Which organelle is found in both eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells:

Answer 1

Answer:

c. Ribosomes

Explanation:

Ribosomes can be found in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.  In eukaryotes they are distributed by the cytoplasm, or trapped in the membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum. In prokaryotes they are found free in the cytoplasm.  In both cells, ribosomes intertwine into an RNA molecule and form polysomes.

Ribosomes are made up of two subunits, the two parts are made up of RNA molecules and proteins. This molecule has the main function of protein synthesis, that is, it is through it that aminoacids reconcile to produce proteins.
