The processing of ribosomal RNA in eukaryotes is shown in Figure 12.16. Why is this called cleavage or processing but not splicing
FIGURE 12.16 The processing of ribosomal RNA in eukaryotes. The large ribosomal RNA gene is transcribed into a long 45S rRNA primary transcript. This transcript is cleaved to produce 18S, 5.8S, and 28S rRNA molecules, which become associated with protein subunits in the ribosome. This processing occurs within the nucleolus of the cell.
