Detailed explanation-1: -The primary functions of the nucleus are to store the cell’s DNA, maintain its integrity, and facilitate its transcription and replication.
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: -These proteins and enzymes form the structure of the cell and do all the activities in the cell, respectively. The function of the nucleus is to maintain the integrity of these genes and to control the activities of the cell by regulating gene expression-the nucleus is, therefore, the control room of the cell.
