C
Larger nucleoli are present in dividing cells

Explanation
The nucleolus is a spherical structure present in the nucleoplasm. It is not membrane-bounded, and thus its content is continuous with nucleoplasm. It is destroyed during cell division. It is a site for active ribosomal RNA synthesis. Larger and more numerous nucleoli are present in cells actively carrying out protein synthesis.
