Nucleus is an important unit of cell which control all activities of the cell. Nucleus holds the hereditary information. It is the largest among all cell organelles, largest among all cell organelles. It may be spherical, cuboidal, ellipsoidal or discoidal. it is surrounded by a double membrane structure called nuclear envelope, which has the inner and outer membrane. The inner membrane is smooth without ribosomes and the outer membrane is rough by the presence of ribosomes and is continues with irregular and infrequent intervals with the endoplasmic reticulum. the membrane is perforated by pores known as nuclear pores which allows materials such as mRNA, ribosomal units, proteins and other macromolecules to pass in and out of the nucleus. the pores enclosed by circular structure called annuli. the pore and annuli forms the pore complex. the space between two membranes is called perinuclear space. nuclear space is filled with nucleoplasm, a gelatinous matrix has uncondensed chromatin network and a conspicuous nucleoli. the chromatin network is the uncoiled, indistinct and remain thread like during the interphase. it has little amount of RNA and DNA bound to histone proteins in eukaryotic cells.
