Nucleus
the nucleus
nucleus One of the main identifiers of eukaryotic cells, the nucleus, is the information and control center of the cell.
The nucleus acts as the cell's control center.
The nucleus is the control center of the cell. It is a membrane-enclosed organelle found in eukaryotic cells that contains the cell's DNA.
The nucleus is the control center of the animal cell. It contains the cell's genetic material (DNA) and regulates cell activities by controlling gene expression.
It is the cell's control center.
In the cell the nucleus acts as the control center. It also houses the DNA of the cell which is essential for reproduction.
The control center of the cell is the nucleus, which contains genetic material (DNA) that directs the cell's activities by regulating the synthesis of proteins. The nucleus acts as the cell's command center, coordinating processes such as cell growth, division, and replication.
If you HAVE California Life Science with a shark on it and the book is by prentice hall: The key function of the nucleus acts as the cell's control center and directs all of the cell's activities. It's on page 94.
It acts like the brain of the cell, that is what it can be compared to, and it controls the functions of the cell from movements to processes going on in the cell, but I must stress, it is not an actual brain.
The nucleus is usually nicknamed as "the brain of the cell" or "the control center", but that is just what they teach you in grade school. All the nucleus actually does is hold the DNA. The DNA is really what controls the cell, tells the cell what to do, and acts as the cell's "brain."
The heart is the control center, the brain is the command center.
