1 The Nucleus Structure DNA and protein surrounded by a nuclear membrane. Contains nuclear pores, nuclear lamina, and a nucleolus

2 Nuclear membrane Also called the nuclear envelope. Double membrane
Porous

3 Nuclear lamina A protein network that stabilizes the nucleus.
Found just inside the nuclear membrane.

4 Functions of the Nucleus
“Control center of the cell” Contains DNA Directs Protein synthesis Contains genetic information

5 Nucleolus Small dark region of the nucleus.
Place where ribosomal components are made.

6 Other notes DNA is found in the form of chromatin Thin and uncoiled.
Chromosomes only form when the cell is about to divide

7 What is made in the nucleolus?
Ribosomes Cars Lipids ATP

8 Great Job

9 Wrong
