Which of the following is NOT correctly matched?

Correct option is B

Correct Answer: (b) Nucleolus – Synthesis of DNA
Explanation:
· The nucleolus is primarily involved in the synthesis of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and the assembly of ribosomes, not the synthesis of DNA.
· DNA synthesis occurs in the nucleus during the replication process.
Other Options:
· Mitochondria – Production of chemical energy: Correct. Mitochondria are responsible for producing ATP, the cell's energy currency, through oxidative phosphorylation.
· Nucleus – Storage of genetic information: Correct. The nucleus houses DNA, which carries the genetic blueprint of the organism.
· Ribosome – Assembly of ribosomes: Correct. Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis. The nucleolus aids in the assembly of ribosomal subunits.
