Solution

The correct option is D Nucleolus
  • A conspicuous rounded body present in the nucleoplasm and attached to a particular chromosome at a definite place is nucleolus.
  • It is a small, dense and spherical structure present in the nucleus of the cell that is visible during the interphase of the cell division under the microscope.
  • This region is dense due to the presence of proteins, DNA and RNA which are formed from specific chromosomal regions called nucleolar organizing regions.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Nucleolus'.
