An ovarian cell receives a series of endocrine signals from the pituitary gland to start producing hormones at a cytoplasmic receptor protein. These hormones also have cytoplasmic receptors. To accommodate this increase, the
ovarian cell starts to produce large amounts of mRNA.
Which of the following would be observed as the cell produces more ribosomes?
The nucleus produces large amounts of tRNA for ribosomal proteins.
O The nucleolus produces large amounts of rRNA and sends it to the cytoplasm.
Ribosomes floating in the cytoplasm exceed the amount of available mRNA.
Ribosomes floating in the cytoplasm not bound to mRNA bind to the endoplasmic reticulum.
