Ribosome
Ribosomes are the site for protein synthesis. This means that proteins are produced on the surface of ribosomes. The ribosomes carry out the instructions that are coded on the DNA. They are found in the cytoplasm or attached on the surface of endoplasmic reticulum. They are made of two subunits that fit togehter to translate mRNA into proteins.Ribosomes are small particles which are found individually in the cytoplasm and also line the membranes of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Ribosomes produce protein.
