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

The correct answer is:
b The ribosomes build proteins based on the genetic instructions they receive from the nucleus.
In eukaryotic cells, the nucleus contains the genetic material (DNA) that contains instructions for building proteins. Ribosomes read these instructions and synthesize proteins accordingly.
