I am located in the nucleus-I produce ribosomes
A
mitochondria
B
nucleolus
C
chloroplast
D
cell 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: -The nucleolus is a ribosome production factory, designed to fulfill the need for large-scale production of rRNAs and assembly of the ribosomal subunits.

Detailed explanation-3: -In eukaryotes, ribosomes get their orders for protein synthesis from the nucleus, where portions of DNA (genes) are transcribed to make messenger RNAs (mRNAs). An mRNA travels to the ribosome, which uses the information it contains to build a protein with a specific amino acid sequence.

Detailed explanation-4: -At the nucleolus, a long ribosomal RNA (rRNA) precursor molecule is transcribed from DNA, processed into three mature RNAs, and packaged together with specific proteins to make the large and small ribosomal subunits.

Detailed explanation-5: -Explanation : Nucleolus is a darkly pigmented portion of nucleus . It produces rRNA which moves from there to cytoplasm and join with proteins to form ribosomes. So it concludes that nucleolus is the portion of cell which forms ribosomes.
