The diagram shows the nucleus and ribosomes in a cell.

Question

What is the relationship between the nucleus and ribosomes?

A.
Ribosomes enter the nucleus to deliver RNA for transcription.

B.
Ribosomes transcribe DNA from protein molecules in the nucleus.

C.
Ribosomes use transcribed RNA in the nucleus to create proteins.

D.
Ribosomes deliver the proteins needed by the nucleus to transcribe DNA.

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

C. Ribosomes use transcribed RNA in the nucleus to create proteins.

Ribosomes are the cellular structures that synthesize proteins by translating mRNA (messenger RNA) that has been transcribed from DNA in the nucleus.
