Function of Nucleus

Function of the Nucleus

The Nucleus is regarded as the centre of many vital activities of the cell.

1. It is concerned with the synthesis of enzymes which catalyze many metabolic reactions.
2. The hereditary factors which influence the characters of plants exist mainly in the nucleus.
3. The nucleus plays an important role in cell division.During cell division it divides first and then the cell divides in to two.Thus by repeated divisions the number of cells increases in the plant body.
4. The nucleus is directly connected with sexual reproduction.The nuclei of male and female gametes fuse together and give rise to the zygote or oospore , from which the embryo develops.
5. Cell nucleus is to control gene expression and mediate the replication of  DNA during the cell cycle.
6. Nucleus contains all the genetic information in its chromatin.
7. Nucleus forms ribosomes  on its nucleolus.
8. The main function of the nucleus is to supports and protects the cell
9. The metabolic reaction is occur in to the nucleus.
10. The nucleus directs all the activities of the cell,controls the growth and reproduction of the cell and contains the blueprints of the cell in the DNA.
