The correct Answer is:
To answer the question regarding the complexes formed by eukaryotic mRNAs associated with proteins, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Components**: Eukaryotic mRNAs (messenger RNAs) are essential molecules that carry genetic information from DNA to the ribosomes, where proteins are synthesized. In eukaryotic cells, these mRNAs are often associated with proteins. 2. **Formation of Ribonucleoprotein Complexes**: When mRNAs associate with proteins, they form ribonucleoprotein complexes. These complexes are crucial for the stability, transport, and translation of mRNA. 3. **Cytoplasmic Presence**: The question states that some of these ribonucleoprotein complexes can remain in the cytoplasm for an extended period before being expressed genetically. This means that they are not immediately translated into proteins. 4. **Identifying the Correct Term**: Among the options provided: - Polyribosomes - Ribonucleoprotein fibers - Pro oncogenes - Informosomes We need to identify which term specifically refers to the ribonucleoprotein complexes that can persist in the cytoplasm. 5. **Correct Answer**: The term that describes these complexes is **polyribosomes** (also referred to as **polyzones**). These structures consist of multiple ribosomes translating a single mRNA strand and can remain in the cytoplasm for a significant time. ### Final Answer: **Polyzones** (or **Polyribosomes**) are the correct answer. ---

The comcept of redistribution of energy in different orbitals of an atom associated with different energies to give new orbitals of equal (or somethimes it may be non-equal) energy oriented in space in definite directions is called hybridization and formed new orbitals are called hybrid orbitals. The bonds formed by such orbitals are called hybrid bonds. The process of mixing of orbitals itself requires some energy. Thus, some additional energy, is needed for the hybridisation (mixing) of atomic orbitals. Q. Which of the following statement is correct?
