Question

Which of these is not found in the nucleus?

• A. Nucleoplasm instead of cytoplasm
• B. Functioning ribosomes
• C. Chromatin that condenses to chromosomes
• D. Nucleolus that produces rRNA

Answer 1

The correct option is B Functioning ribosomes

The nucleus contains the nucleoplasm, chromatin and nucleolus. Ribosomes are small organelles found outside the nucleus. They are either freely found in cytoplasm or attached to endoplasmic reticulum. They are involved in protein synthesis.

So, the correct option is 'Functioning ribosomes'.
