Which statement best describes how the nucleus, the rough endoplasmic reticulum, and ribosomes interact during protein

synthesis?
A.
The ribosomes provide the genetic information needed to direct the synthesis of proteins by the rough endoplasmic
reticulum that is located on the nucleus.
B.
The nucleus gathers amino acids and delivers them to the ribosomes, where they are processed by the rough
endoplasmic reticulum to synthesize proteins.
C.
The nucleus provides the genetic information needed to direct the synthesis of proteins by ribosomes that are located
on the rough endoplasmic reticulum
D.
The ribosomes gather amino acids and deliver them to the nucleus, where they are processed by the rough
endoplasmic reticulum to synthesize proteins.

Answer:

C. The nucleus provides the genetic information needed to direct the synthesis of proteins by ribosomes that are located

on the rough endoplasmic reticulum

Step-by-step explanation:

The nucleus is the organelle that contain the genetic information of the cell while the ribosome is involved with protein synthesis which is packaged into vesicles by the rough endoplasmic reticulum to be transported to the Golgi apparatus. Hence, rough endoplasmic reticulum and ribosomes are involved in production and storage of protein
