The correct function of the nucleolus is (choose 2 answers)
A
form tRNAs
B
form mRNAs
C
form rRNAs
D
form ribosomal proteins
E
form the nuclear membrane
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The nucleolus is a spherical structure found in the cell’s nucleus whose primary function is to produce and assemble the cell’s ribosomes. The nucleolus is also where ribosomal RNA genes are transcribed.

Detailed explanation-2: -Final answer: The nucleolus is a site for active ribosomal RNA synthesis.

Detailed explanation-3: -The main function of nucleolus is to produce and assemble subunits which form the ribosome. Ribosome is the site for protein synthesis. Nucleolus plays an indirect but crucial role in protein synthesis by assembling the ribosome subunits.

Detailed explanation-4: -The nucleolus is a ribosome production factory, designed to fulfill the need for large-scale production of rRNAs and assembly of the ribosomal subunits.
