Which of the following is NOT correctly matched?
- ANucleolus - Synthesis of DNA
- BMitochondria – Production of chemical energy
- CRibosome - Assembly of proteins
- DNucleus – Storage of genetic information
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
* The Nucleolus is primarily responsible for the synthesis and assembly of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and ribosomal subunits, not for the synthesis of DNA (which occurs in the nucleus/nucleoplasm during replication).
The rest of the options highlight the correct main functions of their respective organelles (Mitochondria produce ATP, Ribosomes are factories for protein assembly, and the Nucleus stores DNA).
