The nucleolus is an important site for

Options

  1. Alipid synthesis
  2. BDNA synthesis
  3. Cribosomal protein synthesis
  4. Dribosomal RNA synthesis

Correct answer

D. ribosomal RNA synthesis

Step-by-step solution

The nuclear matrix or the nucleoplasm contains nucleolus and chromatin. The nucleoli are spherical structures present in the nucleoplasm. The content of nucleolus is continuous with the rest of the nucleoplasm as it is not a membrane-bound structure. It is a site for active ribosomal RNA synthesis. Larger and more numerous nucleoli are present in cells actively carrying out protein synthesis.
