Idea #8: The nucleus of a cell contains:

  • all the blueprints and instructions for making another cell like itself, and

  • instructions for running the rest of the cell.

In your workbook on p. 3, answer this question: What is the nucleus and what does it do?


In your workbook, draw a nucleus in the center of the box at the bottom of p. 3. Don't make it too big, and don't color it in.
