Solution
The correct option is D nucleolus Nucleoli present in the nucleoplasm of a nucleus is the site of active ribosomal RNA synthesis. rRNA and proteins are assembled together to form ribosomal subunits. The nuclear envelope is interrupted by minute pores called nuclear pores through which movement of RNA and protein molecules take place in both directions between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. Nucleosome is the structure formed when chromatin wraps around a histone protein core.
