A cell wouldn't survive without a nucleus because that is where the DNA is. If a cell doesn't have genetic material it cannot reproduce properly.

What would happen if the nucleus didn't have genetic materials?

A cell cannot function without genetic material (with the exception of red blood cells, which do function without genetic material - all they have to do is to contain hemoglobin and float in the blood as it circulates). However, in organisms called prokaryotes the genetic information is not present in the nucleus but in the cytoplasm. This is possible because their genetic material is very simple and does not need the nucleus to protect it from harm.


What performs the same job as the nucleus?

An analogy of a nucleus is that it is like a brain. It controls the rest of the body and what goes on mostly. Without it, you body would get confused and then you would die. (the cell would die.) This nucleus houses the DNA, like your brain carries special information on how to do things. Just like DNA does. Also, without DNA, you wouldn't be able to live either.

Which enzyme would cut the plasmid without disrupting the function of?

Perhaps you mean a restriction enzyme, but not disrupting the function of whatever is not too clear. I think if you cut a plasmid with any restriction enzyme I am familiar with the function of that plasmid would be disrupted.
