The nucleus is a cell organelle that contains the DNA. The DNA is the "code" that allows a cell to replicate. However, DNA is also used in the process that allows cells to manufacture proteins, including enzymes, hormones, etc, and these not only make up a body's building blocks, but also carry out all of an organism's functions.

Nucleus contains chromosomes. Chromosomes contain genes which in turn contain DNA. This stores information about cell design and give directions to make more cells.

What does the nucleas do inside a plant cell?

The nucleus is the control center of the cell. There are different types of cells, such as blood cells. Cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs, and organs make up organ systems.


What does the nucleus do in the body?

The nucleus controls the cell. It is like the brain of the cell. Another way to put it is that the nucleus is like the control panel of the cells in your entire body. If that^ doesn't make sense then think of the nucleus as your brain. The cell is like your body. The brain( nucleus) controls your body's movements and reactions to certain things that do not include love.


What is the major difference of a red blood cell and a white blood cell?

The biggest difference is that a red blood cell has no nucleus where as a white blood cell does. A red blood cell has no nucleus because it needs all the space inside the cell for the haemoglobin which is stored inside it and is the oxygen attrcting chemical. White blood cells can have either a bean shaped nucleus which would make it a lymphocyte or a double lobed nucleus which would make it a phagocyte. Another difference is that white blood cells are bigger than red blood cells.

Is a nucleus a specialized cell?

No, a nucleus is not a specialized cell but rather a membrane-bound organelle found within eukaryotic cells. It contains the cell's genetic material and is responsible for regulating gene expression and controlling cellular activities.


Which cell does not have a nucleus?

All of the cells of your body had a nucleus at one time but the red blood cell looses it as it matures. This makes a bit more room in the cell for more hemoglobin. Because they don't have a nucleus anymore, they can't repair themselves and they will die in about 120 days.If you mean other types of cells, the ones called the prokaryotes do not have a nucleus, they have DNA but it is not found inside a membrane. An example of this type of cell is a bacteria cell.
