What organelle is responsible for manufacturing protein in the cell? Endoplasmic Reticulum Nucleus Chloroplast Ribosomes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A

OpenStudy (beccaboo333):

ribosome: a minute particle consisting of RNA and associated proteins, found in large numbers in the cytoplasm of living cells. They bind messenger RNA and transfer RNA to synthesize polypeptides and proteins.

~ got the definition off google, but it's ribosome.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But that Information goes to the ER and then it is manufactured

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im asking not telling @beccaboo333

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Because the Ribosome is responsible for "replication" but the ER is responsible for "Manufacturing"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@beccaboo333 ?

OpenStudy (beccaboo333):

@V1r3z take your own guess, it's your work, you've gotten some info.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ribosome

OpenStudy (beccaboo333):

quizlet is not a reliable source of information, i was, and still am a biology tutor, it's ribosome.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)- It is a network of membranes throughout the cytoplasm of the cell. There are two types of ER. When ribosomes are attached it is called rough ER and smooth ER when there are no ribosomes attached. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is where most protein synthesis occurs in the cell. The function of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum is to synthesize lipids in the cell. The smooth ER is also helps in the detoxification of harmful substances in the cell.
