Detailed explanation-1: -Nucleus is the controlling centre of a cell as it contains chromosomes and genes. Chromosomes contain the DNA which by transcription prepare RNA which in turn leads to the formation of proteins by translation. These proteins regulate the various metabolic processes going in the cell.
Detailed explanation-2: -The nucleus controls and regulates the activities of the cell (e.g., growth and metabolism) and carries the genes, structures that contain the hereditary information.
Detailed explanation-3: -In the nucleus of each cell, the DNA molecule is packaged into thread-like structures called chromosomes. Each chromosome is made up of DNA tightly coiled many times around proteins called histones that support its structure.
