NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Nucleus is large, spherical organelle present in all cells. In animal cell, it is located at the center of the cell, while in plant cell it is located at the periphery of the cell. Genetic material of plant and animal cell is found in nucleus.

Detailed explanation-2: -DNA is primarily located within the nucleus of each cell, where it is contained in structures known as chromosomes. The nucleus is a large area in the center of the cell, responsible for controlling the cell’s activities.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plant and animal cells carry most of their genes on chromosomes in the nucleus, separated from the rest of the cell. However, they also contain a small number of genes in organelles that lie outside the nucleus.

Detailed explanation-4: -Nucleus. The nucleus contains all the genetic material in a cell. This genetic information is called deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). DNA contains all the instructions for making proteins, which control all of the body’s activities.

Detailed explanation-5: -The nucleus (plural, nuclei) houses the cell’s genetic material, or DNA, and is also the site of synthesis for ribosomes, the cellular machines that assemble proteins. Inside the nucleus, chromatin (DNA wrapped around proteins, described further below) is stored in a gel-like substance called nucleoplasm.
