Ribonucleoprotein particles are the name of:
Correct answer: D. Eukaryotic ribosomes
- A. RNA
- B. DNA
- C. Nucleus
- D. Eukaryotic ribosomes
Explanation
Ribosomes are called the ribonucleoprotein particles in a cell. They are called so because they are formed by the association of both RNA and protein. They may be suspended freely in the cytoplasm or transiently attached to the walls of the endoplasmic reticulum as they get the signal from the nucleus.

About Cell Structure and Function
Animal, plant, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are compared through their membranes, cell walls, nuclei and cytoplasmic organelles. The work includes the structures and functions of mitochondria, chloroplasts, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus and lysosomes, as well as chromosome organization and the distinction between chromatin and chromosomes.
