Site of protein synthesis
C
Site of cellular function
D
Site controlling passive transport
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The primary functions of the nucleus are to store the cell’s DNA, maintain its integrity, and facilitate its transcription and replication.

Detailed explanation-2: -By housing the cell’s genome, the nucleus serves both as the repository of genetic information and as the cell’s control center. DNA replication, transcription, and RNA processing all take place within the nucleus, with only the final stage of gene expression (translation) localized to the cytoplasm.

Detailed explanation-3: -It contains chromosomes which have genes that contain the hereditary characteristics to be transferred from parent to offspring.

Detailed explanation-4: -The nucleus is a sphere-shaped organelle found in eukaryotic cells. It contains the genetic material of the cell in the form of nucleic acids. It is responsible for controlling all activities of the cell.
