Assertion : Replication and transcription occur in the nucleus but translation takes place in the cytoplasm.
Reason : $mRNA$ is transferred from the nucleus into cytoplasm where ribosomes and amino acids are available for protein synthesis.
If both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.
If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.
If the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.
Solution
In eukaryotes, the replication and transcription takes place in the nucleus. $mRNA$ comes the nuclear pore. In cytoplasm, translation occurs. In prokaryote, there is no nuclear membrane, so replication, transcription and translation all occur in the cytoplasm.
