Question

WHAT IS THE LABELLED DIAGRAM OF A RIBOSOME?? ALSO TELL ME THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN EUKARYOTIC RIBOSOME AND PROKARYOTIC RIBOSOME??

Answer 1

Eukaryotic ribosomes are larger. They consist of a 60S large subunit and a 40S small subunit, which come together to form an 80S

prokaryotic 70S ribosome.

Answer 2

Eukaryotic ribosomes are larger. They consist of a 60S large subunit and a 40S small subunit, which come together to form an 80S particle having a mass of 4200 kd, compared with 2700 kd for the prokaryotic 70S ribosome. The 40S subunit contains an 18S RNA that is homologous to the prokaryotic 16S RNA.
