Detailed explanation-1: -The endoplasmic reticulum can either be smooth or rough, and in general its function is to produce proteins for the rest of the cell to function. The rough endoplasmic reticulum has on it ribosomes, which are small, round organelles whose function it is to make those proteins.

Detailed explanation-2: -The ribosome is universally responsible for synthesizing proteins by translating the genetic code transcribed in mRNA into an amino acid sequence. Ribosomes use cellular accessory proteins, soluble transfer RNAs, and metabolic energy to accomplish the initiation, elongation, and termination of peptide synthesis.

Detailed explanation-3: -Ribosomes are specialized cell organelles and are found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Every living cell requires ribosomes for the production of proteins.

Detailed explanation-4: -The nucleolus, an organelle is associated with Ribosome function.

Detailed explanation-5: -A common pool of ribosomes is used to synthesize the proteins that stay in the cytosol and those that are transported into the ER.
