A
These are self-splicing introns of some RNAs
B
The prokaryotic ribosomes are 80S, where "S" stands for sedimentation coefficient
C
These are composed of ribonucleic acid and proteins
D
These are found only in eukaryotic cells
Detailed Solution
Ribosomes are granular structures composed of ribonucleic acid (rRNA) and proteins, and are not surrounded by any membrane.
Prokaryotic ribosomes are 70S and eukaryotic ones are 80S; ribosomes are found in both kinds of cells.
