Detailed explanation-1: -The nucleus is the largest organelle in the cell and contains most of the cell’s genetic information (mitochondria also contain DNA, called mitochondrial DNA, but it makes up just a small percentage of the cell’s overall DNA content).
Detailed explanation-2: -DNA is the storehouse of genetic information for every known organism, with the exception of a few viruses. It’s a long, thin molecule – picture two strands that curve around each other, forming a double helix.
Detailed explanation-3: -There are two basic types of cells, prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells. The main difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells is that eukaryotic cells have a nucleus. The nucleus is where cells store their DNA, which is the genetic material.
