Which organelle is found in both eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells:
a. golgi apparatus
b. nucleolus
c. ribosomes
d. plasma membrane

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.

q: compare the parts of a cell and the cell as a whole to another common nonliving system (i.e., a car, a city,

a:

comparing this to the inside of a food building/company.

all cells are surrounded by a plasma membrane, which protects the cell from its environment, keeping toxic substances out of the cell. it regulates which molecules are allowed to enter and exit the cell.

regulates all cell activity such as cellular metabolism, and growth in addition to storing and maintaining the cell's dna for transcription and replication. determines what proteins to make.

contains the organelles; site of most cell activity

the place where ribosomes do their working activity.

builds the proteins.

prepares proteins for use or export.

responsible for breaking down and absorbing materials taken in by the cell.

maintains cell shape.

transforms one form of energy into another.
