What Would Happen If a Cell Didn't Have Ribosomes?

•••

Cells are the smallest functional units of all living things. Inside the cells are specialized structures called organelles that help them perform certain functions. Ribosomes are organelles that create proteins. Cells use proteins to perform important functions such as repairing cellular damage and directing chemical processes. A single cell may contain up to 10 million ribosomes. Without these ribosomes, cells would not be able to produce protein and would not be able to function properly.
