Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

I’m the boss of the cell, telling others what to do. I control the cell’s activities, which in turn controls YOU. What am I?

A	Golgi body
B	Mitochondrion
C	Chromosomes
D	Nucleus

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -All cell activities of the cell are regulated by the nucleus. Hence it is called brain or control centre of the cell.

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: -Nucleus is the control central of the cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -Each of your cells has a boss, too: the nucleus. This control center runs the show, instructing the cell to carry out basic functions, such as growth, development and division. Most of your body’s genetic material–its deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA–is located inside the nucleus.
