Ribosome structure and function are discussed in this video lesson. Its loctaion in a cell and site of synthesis are also explained. • What is a ribosome? • The ribosome is made up of two words, “ribo” meaning “ribonucleic acid” and “somes” from the Greek word “soma” meaning “body”. Ribosomes are small granular structures made up of ribonucleic acid (RNA) and protein, present in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. • The RNA present in ribosomes is known as ribosomal RNA, while proteins present in ribosomes are called ribosomal proteins. It was first studied by Palade in 1955. • The ribosome is made up of two parts known as large and small subunits. Each subunit is made of some ribosomal RNA and many ribosomal proteins. The size of the ribosome is different in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. • To get more resources and worksheets related to this topic visit the link below. • https://www.ahmadcoaching.com • If you liked this video, give it a big thumbs up, subscribe to our channel and click on the bell icon to turn on notifications for updates. • We aim to make biology easy and enjoyable for you.
