Question

State at least five activities of the cell that are controlled by the nucleus.

Answer 1

Answer:

This organelle has two major functions: it stores the cell's hereditary material, or DNA, and it coordinates the cell's activities, which include growth, intermediary metabolism, protein synthesis, and reproduction (cell division).

Answer 2

A nucleus is a double-membraned structure that serves a variety of roles in the cell, including growth, carrying hereditary information, reproduction, synthesis, and controlling other activities.

• The nuclear membrane is the nucleus' outermost layer, which separates the cytoplasm from the nucleus' contents. The nucleolus, which is mostly a mass of granules and fibres connected to chromatin, is the most prominent structure within the nucleus.
• The nucleus coordinates several cell functions such as cell division and protein synthesis.
• Inside the nucleus are chromosomes, which contain the genetic material genes. These genes transport DNA, which contains the genetic information needed for the generation of various cell components as well as life reproduction.
• Only inside the nucleus is it possible to generate an identical copy or duplicate of DNA, and the process of duplication is known as DNA replication.
• DNA transcription, which is responsible for the production of several forms of RNA from DNA, takes place in the nucleus.
• Because nucleus DNA gets replicated into mRNA and ultimately into proteins, the nucleus is indirectly responsible for protein biosynthesis.
