The the exception of red blood cells, all cells have a nucleus. But in a nerve cell, or neuron, the nucleus is located within the cell body.

Site of the nucleus and most important metabolic area?
Neuronal cell body
What does a nucleus in a eukaryotic cell do?
The nucleus in a eukaryotic cell stores genetic information and is the site of transcription of DNA. It is essentially the control center of the cell.
What is the body within the nucleus that is the site of ribosomal-RNA sythesis?
The nucleolus.
Which process takes place in the nucleus of the cell?
The main function of the cell nucleus is to control gene expression and mediate the replication of DNA during the cell cycle. The nucleus provides a site for genetic transcription that is segregated from the location of translation in the cytoplasm, allowing levels of gene regulation that are not available to prokaryotes.
What is the cavity in which an osteocyte occurs?
The small spaces in compact bone tissue that are holes that osteocytes live in are called lacunae (singular: lacuna). The canal that runs through the core of each osteon is the site of blood vessels and nerve fibers; these canals are called canaliculi. The lacuna can sometimes be seen as an empty space with the cell nucleus inside and sometimes the cell nucleus takes up the entire lacuna.
Site of the nucleus and most important metabolic area?
Neuronal cell body
What is the body within the nucleus that is the site of ribosomal-RNA synthesis?
The nucleolus is the site inside the nucleus where rRNA synthesis occurs.
What does a nucleus in a eukaryotic cell do?
The nucleus in a eukaryotic cell stores genetic information and is the site of transcription of DNA. It is essentially the control center of the cell.
Does a cell energy come from a nucleus?
No. The cell's energy comes from the mitochondria, which are the site of aerobic cellular respiration.
What is the site of DNA storage?
DNA is tightly wrapped into chromosomes, and stored within the nucleus of each cell
What does the cell body do in a nerve cell?
Neuron is still a cell, so it still needs to sustain its life as a neuron. Cell body contains all the organelles, such as mitochondria that is needed to make the vast quantity of ATP needed in action potential, and the nucleus, which contains the DNA needed to make proteins for the cell.
Organelle site within cell where protein synthesis occurs?
nucleus in the ribosomes
What is the body within the nucleus that is the site of ribosomal-RNA sythesis?
The nucleolus.
What is located outside of the nucleus membrane and is the site of many chemical reactions?
Cell Membrane
Which organelle has most of the genes that controls the cell?
DNA is found in the nucleus. Genes are sections of DNA that code for a functional product, such as protein. Therefore the nucleus is the site where the functions of the cell are controlled.
What contains genetic material of a eukaryotic cell?
The nucleus holds the cells genetic material in eukaryotes. The genome of eukaryotes is sequestered to a membrane bound organelle called the nucleus. The nucleus is the site of replication and transcription.
Which process takes place in the nucleus of the cell?
The main function of the cell nucleus is to control gene expression and mediate the replication of DNA during the cell cycle. The nucleus provides a site for genetic transcription that is segregated from the location of translation in the cytoplasm, allowing levels of gene regulation that are not available to prokaryotes.
