Ribosomes are found in two locations in the cell. Free ribosomes are present in the cytosol, the watery fluid inside the cell and are not attached to any other structure. Membrane-bound ribosomes are attached to a structure known as rough endoplasmic reticulum.
For the production of different-different proteins ribosomes exists in the free and bound configuration in eukaryotic cells.
Free and membrane-bound ribosomes produce different proteins. Whereas membrane-bound ribosomes produce proteins that are exported from the cell to be used elsewhere, free ribosomes produce proteins used inside the cell itself.
Proteins Produced by Free Ribosomes
Ribosomes are important because they are responsible for protein synthesis. Free ribosomes, in particular, are important because they produce proteins essential for internal cellular activity, which are not synthesized elsewhere. These include proteins used in the cytosol and the supportive structure known as the cytoskeleton, as well as those used by the mitochondria, which produces the cell’s energy, and, in plant cells, chloroplasts. Without free ribosomes, the various components of the cell could not function
Proteins made by bound ribosomes either function within the endomembrane system or pass through it and are secreted from the cell.
Why do ribosomes exist in the free and bound configurations in eukaryotic cells.

Cytoplasm and a well-defined nucleus surrounded by a membrane Membranous sites of ATP synthesis, Golgi complex, and ribosomes Mitochondria, nucleus, and ribosomes D) Cell wall, several chromosomes, and cytoplasm Cell membrane, ribosomes, DNA, and RNA
To promote the translational activity of ribosomes in human cells for synthesizing viral proteins during infection, viruses: a)Keep a ribosome binding site specific to human ribosomes on their genome. b)Only adhere to and infect metabolically active host cells where protein synthesis is high. c)Maintain introns and sometimes exons in there genomes to appear as eukaryotic mRNA. d)Chemically modify (e.g., cap and methylate) the transcripts.

Eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells are two important kinds of cells encountered in our world. Do the following: Explain how the evolution of cells made cellular respiration possible, and What environmental pressures necessitated cellular respiration?
Mitochondria and chloroplasts were once free-living bacteria that later migrated into eukaryotic cells. Mitochondria make energy while chloroplasts prepare their own food. How can a mitochondrion live by itself? Explain your answer by mentioning the specific processes that this organelle performs. What does a chloroplast do to survive in its free living condition? What important chemicals does it need froma sorrounding primordial soup to prepare its own food? Apart from the process by which chloroplasts prepare their own food, what...
