In a prokaryotic cell, most ribosomes are
A) in the nucleus.
B) attached to the ER.
C) attached to the nucleus.
D) floating freely in the cytoplasm.

Respuesta :

In a eukaryotic cell, the ribosomes are found in the nucleus but since a prokaryotic cell doesn't have a nucleus, the ribosomes are floating freely in the cytoplasm. Hope this helped :)

Correct answer: D). Floating freely in the cytoplasm.

A prokaryote is an organism which does not have the nucleus and almost no membranous organelles. The nucleus is found only in eukaryotes, and each and every cell require ribosomes in order to make proteins.

Since there are no membrane-bound organelles found in prokaryotes, the ribosomes float freely in the cytoplasm.

Hence, the correct answer would be option D.
