Solution

The correct option is B Nucleolus
  • The nucleolus is the largest structure in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. It is best known as the site of ribosome biogenesis
  • Ribosomal RNA is actively synthesized in the nucleolus. The nucleolus is also known as the ribosomal factory.
  • Hence Ribosomal RNA is actively synthesized in Nucleolus.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Nucleolus'.
