The biosynthesis of ribosomal RNA occurs in:

The biosynthesis of ribosomal RNARNA occurs in:

Options

  1. ARibosomes
  2. BGolgi apparatus
  3. CMicrobodies
  4. DNucleolus

Correct answer

D. Nucleolus

Step-by-step solution

The fluid inside the nucleus is called nucleoplasm or nuclear matrix. The nucleoplasm contains nucleolus and chromatin. The nucleolus is a spherical structure. The nucleolus is not a membrane-bound structure. Synthesis of ribosomal RNA (rRNArRNA) takes place in the nucleolus. It also participate in the formation of signal recognition particles and play a role in the cell's response to stress. Nucleoli are made of proteins, DNA and RNA and form around specific chromosomal regions called nucleolar organizing regions.
