Question

The protists have

• A. only free nucleic acid aggregates
• B. membrane bound nucleoprotein lying embedded in the cytoplasm
• C. gene containing nucleoproteins condensed together in loose mass
• D. nucleoprotein in direct contact with the rest of the cell substance

Answer 1

The correct option is B membrane bound nucleoprotein lying embedded in the cytoplasm

Protists have a membrane-enclosed nucleus and membrane-enclosed organelles. This nucleus is embedded in the cytoplasm. They may be single or many in number and the nucleus has a membrane covering called the nuclear envelope with pores over it.

So, the correct option is 'membrane-bound nucleoprotein lying embedded in the cytoplasm'.
