Well then I have absolutely no clue...

OpenStudy (abhisar):

hmm...!

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Ribosomes lack membrane.

OpenStudy (idek-ok):

"C. They are not enclosed by a membrane. See, even prokaryotic cells have ribosomes. Some would have you believe that prokaryotic cells have no organelles at all, which is nonsense. They don't have membrane-bounded organelles, like a nucleus. I know we're not really even talking about prokaryotic cells, but at first, this helped me to remember these things. Anyway, ya, the answer is C. "

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Other organelles like mitochondria, chloroplast, nucleus all are membrane bound
