easy Q12 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Step 1: Understand the question
The question asks which organelle contains genetic material and controls cell functions.Step 2: Recall organelle functions
The nucleus contains DNA, the genetic material, and acts as the control center. Chloroplasts perform photosynthesis, ER synthesizes proteins/lipids, and cell membrane controls substance movement.Final Answer:
Nucleus → Option DQuick Check:
Genetic material location = Nucleus ✅
Quick Trick: Nucleus = 'Control center' with DNA inside.
Common Mistakes:
- Mistaking chloroplast or ER as genetic material holders.
