Answer:

A typical mammalian cell may contain numerous kinds of proteins and numerous individual protein molecules. The eukaryotic cell is a multi-compartmental structure. Its many organelles each requires different proteins. Except a few of them which are synthesized in mitochondria and chloroplasts all other proteins necessary for the cell and the ones to be secreted by the cell are synthesized in the cytosol on free ribosomes and on ribosomes bound to the endoplasmic reticulum.

Most proteins are coded by the nuclear genome and synthesized in the cytoplasm. The proteins are present in the ER, mitochondria, chloroplasts, Golgi, peroxisomes, nucleus, in the cytosol and in the membranes of all these organelles. They are selectively transported into their appropriate organelles inside the cell and across the plasma membrane to be secreted outside the cell.
