GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -However, eukaryotic cells that specialize in producing proteins have particularly large numbers of ribosomes. For example, the pancreas is responsible for producing and secreting large amounts of digestive enzymes, so the pancreatic cells that make these enzymes have an unusually high number of ribosomes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: Large numbers of ribosomes are present in cells that specialize in producing proteins.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Ribosomes are the sites in a cell in which protein synthesis takes place. Cells have many ribosomes, and the exact number depends on how active a particular cell is in synthesizing proteins. For example, rapidly growing cells usually have a large number of ribosomes (Figure 5).
