A. Lipid molecule polymerization
B. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) synthesis and ribosome assembly
✓
C. Duplication of structural centriole pairs
D. Synthesis of secondary cell wall cutin

📝 Explanation

The nucleolus functions as a ribosome manufacturing center, transcribing rRNA and combining it with proteins to form ribosomal subunits.
