1. RIBOSOMES THE BEST ORGANELLE EVER

3. Read the RNA’s information and use it to create proteins (translation)WHAT DO THEY DO?

5. Made out of complexes of RNAs and proteins

6. 2 subunits:

7. smaller attaches to mRNA

8. Larger binds to the tRNA and amino acids

9. Then they splitWHAT DO THEY LOOK LIKE?

11. Eukaryotes:

12. free in cytoplasm for use inside cell

13. attached to outer membrane of endoplasmic reticulum for use outside of cellWHERE DO THEY LIVE?

14. PLANT AND ANIMAL CELLS PLANT ANIMAL

16. 5 infants/million

17. Heart and skeletal abnormalities, not enough red blood cells

18. The 7 mutated genes give faulty instructions on how to make ribosomal proteins

19. Cartilage Hair Hypoplasia

20. Relatively rare, but 1/19 of the Amish population are carriers

21. Anemic, short limbs, leukopenia (low white blood cell count) and thrombocytopenia (low platelet count)

22. The gene mutation causes a buildup of one enzyme which builds ribosomal RNA

23. Shwachman-Diamond Syndrome

24. 1/100,000 children

25. Neutropenia (low white blood cell count) and Pancreatic problems that lead to steatorrhea (fatty bowel movement) because there aren’t enough enzymes to digest fats, anemia

26. The gene mutation is causing a low amount of enzymes made out of proteins

27. Dyskeratosis Congenita

28. 1/million children

29. Hair, nail, skin, lungs, blood, digestive and immune system abnormalities, aplastic anemia (bone marrow doesn’t make enough platelets, red or white blood cells),
