The largest organelle within a cell is the nucleus. It contains the cell's genetic material (DNA) and is responsible for regulating gene expression and cell division. The cell membrane and ribosomes are important cellular components, but they are not classified as organelles and are smaller than the nucleus.

Which is the largest organelle within a eukaryotic cell?

A large, double membrane-bound organelle found in eukaryotic cells. Contains DNA and RNA. Organelle - A membrane-bound sub-cellular structure found in eukaryotic cells. The Cell nucleus, mitochondria, ER, and golgi apparatus are all examples.


Which organelle does not contain a partially permeable membrane?

The ribosome is an organelle that does not contain a partially permeable membrane. Unlike membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus or mitochondria, ribosomes are composed of ribosomal RNA and proteins, and they exist freely in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum. They function in protein synthesis without the need for a membrane structure.


What transfers information from the nucleus to the organelle?

Messenger RNA (mRNA) transfers information from the nucleus to the organelle, specifically the ribosome. This process is part of protein synthesis, where the mRNA carries the genetic code from the DNA in the nucleus to the ribosome, where the information is used to assemble proteins.


What is the nucleolus of a cell?

It is an organelle that is found in the nucleus. It makes ribosome parts (the proteins necessary for the function of the nucleus).

Is ribosomes a nuclear organelle?

No. Ribosomes are classified as being either "free" or "membrane-bound". Free ribosomes can move about anywhere in the cytosol, but are excluded from the cell nucleus and other organelles. When a ribosome begins to synthesize proteins that are needed in some organelles, the ribosome making this protein can become "membrane-bound".


Which organelle is responsible for protecting the nucleus?

The nuclear membrane surrounds the nucleus and protects it.
