Detailed explanation-1: -Nucleus. Known as the cell’s “command center, ” the nucleus is a large organelle that stores the cell’s DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). The nucleus controls all of the cell’s activities, such as growth and metabolism, using the DNA’s genetic information.
Detailed explanation-2: -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.
Detailed explanation-3: -In eukaryotes, the cell’s genetic material, or DNA, is contained within an organelle called the nucleus, where it is organized in long molecules called chromosomes.
Detailed explanation-4: -The three organelles that contain DNA are the nucleus, mitochondria and chloroplasts. Organelles are membrane-bound subunits within a cell–analogous to organs in the body–that perform specific functions. The nucleus is the control center of the cell, and houses genetic information.
Detailed explanation-5: -1: Eukaryotic Nucleus: The nucleus stores chromatin (DNA plus proteins) in a gel-like substance called the nucleoplasm. The nucleolus is a condensed region of chromatin where ribosome synthesis occurs.
