Final answer:

RNA polymerase I is the enzyme found in the nucleolus responsible for transcribing and processing rRNA and assembling it into ribosomes.

Step-by-step explanation:

RNA polymerase I is the enzyme found in the nucleolus that is responsible for transcribing and processing rRNA and assembling it into ribosomes.

The nucleolus is a specialized nuclear substructure where ribosomal RNA is synthesized, processed, and assembled into ribosomes.

RNA polymerase I synthesizes the different components of the rRNA, which are essential for the process of translation.
