DNA is cause of nuclear pore (hole between two nuclear membrane) appearance.

The single-stranded DNA located in pore annulus initiate nucleoporins assembly building native structure of pore complex ( please see details in Kuvichkin V.V., 2011, J. Membr. Biol. v. 241(3), pp.109-116).

What is the channel in the nuclear membrane through which the RNA passes?

The channel in the nuclear membrane through which RNA passes is called the nuclear pore complex. It allows for the transport of RNA molecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm.


How does mitochondrial DNA differ from nuclear DNA in terms of structure and function?

Mitochondrial DNA is smaller and circular in structure, while nuclear DNA is larger and linear. Mitochondrial DNA is only inherited from the mother, while nuclear DNA is inherited from both parents. Mitochondrial DNA is responsible for producing energy in the form of ATP, while nuclear DNA contains the majority of an organism's genetic information.


What is the function of nuclear lamina?

From Wikipedia: The nuclear lamina is a dense (~30 to 100 nm thick) fibrillar network inside the nucleus of an eukaryotic cell. It is composed of intermediate filaments and membrane associated proteins. Besides providing mechanical support, the nuclear lamina regulates important cellular events such as DNA replication and cell division. Additionally, it participates in chromatin organization and it anchors the nuclear pore complexes embedded in the nuclear envelope. The nuclear lamina is associated with the inner face of the bilayer nuclear envelope whereas the outer face stays continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum.


What are the sources of DNA in a plant cell?

The main sources of DNA in a plant cell are located within the nucleus, where the nuclear DNA is found. Additionally, plant cells also contain DNA in their mitochondria and chloroplasts. Mitochondrial DNA is inherited maternally, while chloroplast DNA is inherited from both parents.

What does a nuclear pore do?

It's like a communication canal, DNA is isolated inside the nucleus but RNA can leave and go into the cytoplasm where it's transcribed through the pore. Water and other molecules can also go through.

What are analogies for Nuclear Pore?

The analogy of a nuclear pore is that if it were a factory, the nuclear pore is like the wall around the manager's office. These walls contain all plans that tell the workers in the cytoplasm what to make and the quantity it should make.
