Question

The diagram shows a cross section of a eukaryotic cell.

How do the nucleus and ribosomes work together?



a
The nucleus sorts and distributes the genetic information it receives from the ribosomes.
b
The ribosomes build proteins based on the genetic instructions they receive from the nucleus.
c
The ribosomes perform chemical reactions that supply the nucleus with needed nutrients.
d
The nucleus creates proteins and lipids that the ribosomes then transport to other organelles.

The correct answer is:

**b. The ribosomes build proteins based on the genetic instructions they receive from the nucleus.**

In eukaryotic cells, the nucleus houses the cell's genetic material (DNA), which is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA). This mRNA is then transported out of the nucleus to the ribosomes, where it is translated into proteins according to the genetic instructions.
