What is a Nucleus?
A
It´s a cell in the lysosome. Which helps break down waste in the eukaryotic cells.
B
Its the surface of the skin.
C
Organelle in the eukarytotic cells that cells depend on.
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The nucleus is particularly important among eukaryotic organelles because it is the location of a cell’s DNA. Two other critical organelles are mitochondria and chloroplasts, which play important roles in energy conversion and are thought to have their evolutionary origins as simple single-celled organisms.

Detailed explanation-2: -The nucleus is considered to be one of the most important structures of eukaryotic cells as it serves the function of information storage, retrieval and duplication of genetic information. It is a double membrane-bound organelle that harbours the genetic material in the form of chromatin.

Detailed explanation-3: -Typically, the nucleus is the most prominent organelle in a cell. Eukaryotic cells have a true nucleus, which means the cell’s DNA is surrounded by a membrane. Therefore, the nucleus houses the cell’s DNA and directs the synthesis of proteins and ribosomes, the cellular organelles responsible for protein synthesis.

Detailed explanation-4: -A nucleus is defined as a double-membraned eukaryotic cell organelle that contains the genetic material. As stated above, the nucleus is found only in eukaryotes and is the defining characteristic feature of eukaryotic cells.
