Ques. 1AIPMT 2015 (Cancelled)

DNA is not present in :

  1. Nucleus
  2. Chloroplast
  3. Mitochondria
  4. Ribosomes

Answer

(4) Ribosomes

Solution

As per NCERT, the nucleus contains chromatin (DNA + proteins), while mitochondria and chloroplasts are semi-autonomous organelles having their own circular DNA and 70S ribosomes.

∵ Ribosomes are non-membrane-bound granules made only of RNA and proteins ⇒ they do not contain DNA.

∴ DNA is not present in ribosomes.

Answer: (4)
