Describe the structure and function of the nucleus.
The nucleus is spherical-shaped and is present in every eukaryotic, cell except red blood cells. The nucleus is the control centre of eukaryotic cells. It is also responsible for the coordination of genes and gene expression. The structure of the nucleus includes nuclear membrane, chromosomes, nucleoplasm, and nucleolus.
