They are made up of both protein and RNA, and have two parts, a large and small subunit. For protein-RNA complexes, they are relatively big within the cell. I believe the RNA structure is the part that is most directly involved in interacting with and stabilizing protein synthesis (the function of a ribosome).

Ribosomes are made of subunits that are built of rRNA and protein.
