Ribosomes are special because they are found in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. ... Endoplasmic reticulum with attached ribosomes is called rough ER. It looks bumpy under a microscope. The attached ribosomes make proteins that will be used inside the cell and proteins made for export out of the cell.
