Correct answer: C
Ribosomes are non-membrane-bound organelles present in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. They are the sites of protein synthesis and are often called the "protein factories" of the cell.
Key Facts:
Present in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
Not surrounded by a membrane.
Made of rRNA and proteins.
70S ribosomes → Prokaryotes
80S ribosomes → Eukaryotes
Therefore, the correct answer is Ribosome.
