Which of the following most accurately describes the chronological order of ribosome biogenesis in eukaryotes? |
| A. | Ribosomal proteins are translated in the cytoplasm and transported to the nucleolus. At the same time, rRNA genes are being rapidly transcribed in the nucleolus. rRNA and ribosomal proteins form the 60S and 40S subunits in the nucleolus and are then transported to the cytoplasm for functional ribosome assembly. |
| B. | Ribosomal proteins are translated in the cytoplasm. At the same time, rRNA genes are being rapidly transcribed in the nucleolus. rRNA is transported to the cytoplasm where the rRNA and ribosomal proteins form the 60S and 40S ribosomal subunits. |
| C. | Ribosomal proteins are translated in the cytoplasm and transported to the nucleolus. At the same time, rRNA genes are being rapidly transcribed in the cytoplasm. rRNA and ribosomal proteins form the 60S and 40S subunits in the cytoplasm. |
