NEET BIOLOGYCell Cycle and Cell Division Easy

Question

Non-membranous nucleoplasmic structures in the nucleus, are the sites for active synthesis of:

A

protein

B

mRNA

C

rRNA

D

tRNA

Step-by-Step Solution

The nucleoli are spherical structures present in the nucleoplasm. The content of nucleolus is continuous with the rest of the nucleoplasm as it is not a membrane-bound structure. It is a site for active ribosomal RNA (rRNA) synthesis .

Exam Context & Concepts Covered

This question aligns with the NEET BIOLOGY syllabus, specifically targeting concepts from Cell Cycle and Cell Division . Mastering this topic is crucial for scoring well in the upcoming medical entrance examinations. Solving conceptually related problems will help you understand the nuances of these concepts and improve your problem-solving speed.

Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A): The beginning of diplotene is recognised by the dissolution of the synaptonemal complex and formation of X shaped structures called chiasmata. Reason (R): In oocytes of some vertebrates, diplotene can last for months or years.
