The nucleus is the very dense region consisting of nucleons (protons and neutrons) at the center of an atom. Almost all of the mass in an atom is made up from the protons and neutrons in the nucleus, with a very small contribution from the orbiting electrons. It was discovered in 1911, as a result of Ernest Rutherford's interpretation of the famous 1909 Rutherford experiment performed by Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden, under the direction of Rutherford.
The diameter of the nucleus is in the range of 1.75 FM (1.75×10−15
m) for hydrogen (the diameter of a single proton)[1] to about 15 FM for the heaviest atoms, such as uranium. These dimensions are much smaller than the diameter of the atom itself (nucleus + electronic cloud), by a factor of about 23,000 (uranium) to about 145,000 (hydrogen).

Where are the chromosomes of the organisms located?
enclosed within the nucleous of the cell
Where are genes found in the human body?
in cells that have nucleous, they are stored in the nucleous but for the cells that dont have nucleous. they just fload around in the cell
Where in the atom are the electrons?
nucleous
Does a plant cell have a nucleous?
yes
What organelle controls information inside the cell?
NUCLEOUS
What is the regions where electrons are located?
around the nucleous
Where are the chromosomes of the organisms located?
enclosed within the nucleous of the cell
What is the function of the citric acid cycle or the kreb's cycle?
atoms that are held in the postive side in the nucleous
Where are genes found in the human body?
in cells that have nucleous, they are stored in the nucleous but for the cells that dont have nucleous. they just fload around in the cell
What does a nucleous look like?
What does a nucleous look like you bunch of dorks?
Bases do not have what properties?
Nucleous
Where in the atom are the electrons?
nucleous
Cell that does not have a nucleous?
prokareotic cell
Does a plant cell have a nucleous?
yes
What properties do all cell?
Nucleous. :)
Why does it take more energy to remove electrons closer to the nucleus?
the nucleous is positively charged , the electron is negatively charged..the closer to the nucleous an electron is the strongest is the force that attracts it (the force of the nucleous) so more energy is needed to remove it
Eukaryotic DNA is located in the what?
Eukaryotes have well defiened cell organali and are bounded by membranes. The DNA in eukaryotes are packed in form of chromosomes which are present in nucleous.
