Ribosomes in secretory cells-free cytoplasmic ribosomes

Which are the more plentiful ribosomes in secretory cells-the free cytoplasmic ribosomes or such related with the rough endoplasmic reticulum?

Free cytoplasmic ribosomes are more associated to protein production for internal cellular consumption whereas those adhered to the rough endoplasmic reticulum is more significant in protein synthesis for exportation. Proteins made up by adhered ribosomes enter the rough endoplasmic reticulum and are afterward transferred to the Golgi apparatus. Therefore in secretory cells ribosomes adhered to the endoplasmic reticulum are more remarkable.
