Understand that the sedimentation coefficient (Svedberg unit, S) reflects the size and shape of ribosomal subunits and the whole ribosome, not a simple sum of the parts because it depends on how particles sediment during centrifugation.
Recall that eukaryotic cytosolic ribosomes are composed of two subunits: the large 60S subunit and the small 40S subunit.
Recognize that when these two subunits combine to form the complete ribosome, the sedimentation coefficient is not additive (i.e., 60S + 40S ≠ 100S) due to the complex interactions and shape of the assembled ribosome.
Know from cell biology that the assembled eukaryotic cytosolic ribosome has a sedimentation coefficient of 80S, which is characteristic of eukaryotic ribosomes.
Therefore, the correct sedimentation coefficient for a typical eukaryotic cytosolic ribosome is 80S.
