Compare and contrast the location and function of ribosomes in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

Explanation:

In eukaryotic cells, ribosomes are found in the cytosol of a cell, the mRNA , endoplasmic reticulum and also the matrix of the mitochondria. They are large molecules that catalyzes the synthesis of proteins, which is called translation. The ribosome choose tRNA and covalently links the amino acids into a polypeptide chain.

In prokaryotes, it can be found in cystosol and it help translate genetic code into protein.
