Organelle.
B
Nucleus.
C
Cell envelope.
D
Cytoplasm.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The nucleus is the most conspicuous organelle found in a eukaryotic cell. It houses the cell’s chromosomes and is the place where almost all DNA replication and RNA synthesis occurs. The nucleus is spheroid in shape and separated from the cytoplasm by a membrane called the nuclear envelope.

Detailed explanation-2: -Nucleus-The control center of the cell that directs all of the cell activities. Genetic material is contained inside. Usually found in center of cell. Nuclear Membrane-The outside boundary of the nucleus that controls what enters and exits the nucleus.

Detailed explanation-3: -nucleoplasm and nucleolus. It controls all the activities of the cell by synthesizing rRNA and releasing into the cytoplasm for protein synthesis. The rRNA moves into the cytoplasm through the nuclear pore.
