How do floating ribosomes differ in function from the ribosomes attached to the ER?

• Floating = produce proteins for INSIDE cell; Attached = produce proteins for OUTSIDE cell

• Floating = produce proteins for OUTSIDE cell; Attached = produce proteins for INSIDE cell

• Floating = produce lipids for INSIDE cell; Attached = produce lipids for OUTSIDE cell

• Floating = produce lipids for OUTSIDE cell; Attached = produce lipids for INSIDE cell

• Floating = INSIDE cytoplasm; Attached = Attached to ER

Processes and transports proteins made at attached ribosomes

• Rough ER

• Smooth ER

• Golgi Apparatus

• Cytoplasm

• Plasma Membrane

Makes phospholipids

• Rough ER

• Smooth ER

• Golgi Apparatus

• Cytoplasm

• Plasma Membrane
