Suppose that you have a laboratory technique that allows you to label (with color, for example) snRNPs within a cell. Where would you expect to see positive staining in a eukaryotic cell?
A. The nucleus
B. The cytoplasm
C. The mitochondria
D. The lysosomes
E. The plasma membrane

snRNPs, or small nuclear ribonucleoproteins, are RNA-protein complexes that combine with unmodified pre-mRNA and various other proteins to form a spliceosome, a large RNA-protein molecular complex upon which splicing of pre-mRNA occurs

Splicing occurs in the nucleus hence positive staining will likely be observed here.
