Nucleus

I think that the nucleus is the most important organelle in the cell. This is the information center of the cell. Genetic material is stored here, proteins are formed here that transform into chromosomes. The nucleus controls the functioning of the DNA. DNA is necessary for reproduction, growth and the metabolism in the organism as a whole. The nucleus makes the transfer and replication of hereditary molecules easy and makes sure that genetic material is copied correctly. Without the nucleus the cell could not perform the cells function.
