Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The proteins required for the formation of ribosome are synthesised within the cytoplasm through the process of translation.
These proteins are later shifted to nucleus and then to nucleolus where the RNA and proteins are assembled into ribosomal sub-units. In prokaryotes (bacteria) ribosomes are synthesised in cytoplasm. In eukaryotes, the process takes place both in the cell cytoplasm and in the nucleolus which is a region within the cell nucleus.
