Biology Question on the molecular basis of inheritance
Ribosomal RNA is actively synthesized in
A
Lysosomes
B
Nucleolus
C
Nucleoplasm
D
Ribosomes
Answer
Nucleolus
Explanation
Solution
Nucleolus is the centre for synthesis of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) that form ribosomal subunits. Ribosomal proteins migrate to the nucleolus from their assembly sites in the cytoplasm and are packaged into ribonucleoproteins. These return to the cytoplasm where they become mature ribosome particles.
