A Ribosome is composed of ribosomal RNA and proteins.
They are made in the cell nucleus, in two types of subunits, the large and the small.
The subunits go to the cell body, where they can float free in the cytoplasm or attach to the rough endoplasmic reticulum.

The ER is like an apartment complex for the ribosomes. It stores them, and makes new ones all the time out of its membranes. Best answer me please.
