Is the ribosome in the nucleus?

Best Answer

Ribosomes are synthesized in the nucleolus by combining rRNA which is made there and ribosomal proteins that are synthesized in the cytoplasm and are imported into the nucleus. The ribosome is exported out of the nucleus and into the cytoplasm or are deposited on the rough ER. Ribosomes do not become fully active until they leave the nucleus.

The nucleus contains the nucleolus which produces ribosomes (technically ribosomal RNA, rRNA).

no, ribosomal Rna is though. This codes for ribosome production. The actual ribosome is found ont he rough E.R.

Ribosomes are made in an area of the nucleus called the nucleolus.

No. Ribosomes are found in the cytoplasm. In prokaryotes, they are found as free ribosomes in the cytoplasm. In eukaryotes they are found attached to the surface of the endoplasmic reticulum

Ribosomes are not seperate organisms, the don't have a nucleus.

Ribosome is an organelle.It is same as nucleus in hierarchy.

Is the nucleus the organelle that is the center for protein synthesis?

No. protein synthesis occurs in the ribosome. The ribosome receives the mRNA from the nucleus (code for amino acids) which directs the assembly of the chain of amino acids, but the nucleus is not directly responsible for the creation of the protein. Also, the ribosome isa separate organelle, even if it is attached to the nucleus while assembling the protein chain.


What type of nucle acid carries that coedes for making proteins from the nucleus to the ribosome?

The type of nucleic acid that carries the code for making proteins from the nucleus to the ribosome is messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA is transcribed from DNA in the nucleus and then carries the genetic information to the ribosome where it is translated into proteins.

It is an organelle that is found in the nucleus. It makes ribosome parts (the proteins necessary for the function of the nucleus).

Proteins are made using DNA. DNA is stored in nucleus


What does mRNA carry away from the nucleus?

Basically, mRNA carries a message away from the nucleus. The nucleus says hey, we need these proteins made, and mRNA is made by using RNA polymerase to copy the information on DNA. That mRNA then moves out of the nucleus to a ribosome, where rRNA and tRNA will interact with the mRNA, eventually resulting in the production of a fully functional protein.
