Question

RNA is found in all of the following structures except
(a) Prokaryotic (b) Nucleus, chloroplast and mitochondria
(c) Vacuole (d) Ribosomes, HIV, TMV​

Answer 1

Answer:

nucleus,chloroplast and mitochondria

Answer 2

The correct option is (c) vacuole.

• RNA or ribonucleic acid as genetic material is found in prokaryotes. examples are viruses and viroids.so, HIV and TMV are both viruses so they also contain RNA.
• The nucleus also contains RNA as it is formed from DNA in the nucleus through the process of transcription.
• Chloroplast and mitochondria also have RNA. mitochondrial RNA functions in oxidative phosphorylation whereas chloroplast RNA is known to synthesise protein.
• Ribosomes contain rRNA i.e ribosomal rRNA.
• Hence, RNA is not found in the vacuole.
