Question

93. Larger and more numerous nucleoli are present in
cells which are actively carrying out
(1) Protein synthesis
(2) Lipid synthesis
(3) Steroidal hormone synthesis
(4) Carbohydrate synthesis

Answer 1

Answer:

(1) protein synthesis is your answer

Answer 2

Larger and more numerous nucleoli are present in the cells which actively carry out Protein Synthesis.

Explanation:

• Proteins are the energy storehouses in an organism.

• Proteins synthesis and store energy and hence requires larger and more numerous nucleoli present in the cells containing it.

• Another reason is also plasmolysis. Nucleolus is a site of active rRNA synthesis.

• Thus, in regenerative cells it is present in larger size and also is more prominent in number.
