Where is it found? The nucleus can be found in Eukaryotic cells within an enclosed nuclear membrane.
The activities the nucleus must coordinate include metabolism, growth, protein synthesis, and reproduction
Reflection: What I learned about the nucleus is that it is the control center of the cell. The nucleus holds all the genetic information necessary for the cell including DNA. I also learned that the nucleus in found within advanced cells called Eukaryotes. Something that surprised me about the nucleus was all of the functions it must carry out as it is the control center and the cells activities revolve around it. I had learned about this earlier in the year but it was good to refresh on this information. I like this objective because I think it is interesting to learn about cell parts and their functions.
