The nucleus houses the DNA that contains the majority of a eukaryotic genome in the form of chromosomes. Prokaryotes do not have a nucleus. It should be noted, however, that eukaryotes also have DNA in mitochrondria, which are thought to be prokaryotes that were engulfed, DNA and all, at some point during evolution.
