  • Nucleolus: The Organelle Responsible for Ribosome Assembly
    The organelle that assembles ribosomes is the nucleolus.

    Here's why:

    * Ribosomes are essential for protein synthesis. They read the genetic code from messenger RNA (mRNA) and use it to link amino acids together to create proteins.

    * The nucleolus is a dense region within the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. It's not membrane-bound, but rather a collection of proteins and RNA molecules.

    * The nucleolus is the site of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) synthesis and the assembly of ribosomes.
