Where is RNA located?
A
Nucleus
B
Ribosome
C
Mitochondria
D
Golgi body
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The rRNA is found in the cytoplasm of a cell, which is also the location of ribosomes. mRNA is translated into proteins under the control of rRNA.

Detailed explanation-2: -Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is the most common form of RNA found in cells – it makes up around 50% of the structure of the ribosomes. It is produced in the nucleus, before moving out into the cytoplasm to bind with proteins and form a ribosome. Transfer RNA (tRNA) is found in the cytoplasm and has a complex shape.

Detailed explanation-3: -RNA forms in the nucleolus, and then moves to specialised regions of the cytoplasm depending on the type of RNA formed.
