The '''cell nucleus''' is the [[plasma membrane|membrane]]-bound region in the center of a [[cell]] that contains the cell's genetic material.  This genetic material is in the form of [[chromatin]], a complex of [[DNA]] and various "spool" proteins.  An apparent structure inside the nucleus is a darker region called the [[nucleolus]], which is the site where [[ribosomes]] are assembled.

The cell nucleus is the membrane-bound region in the center of a cell that contains the cell's genetic material. This genetic material is in the form of chromatin, a complex of DNA and various "spool" proteins. An apparent structure inside the nucleus is a darker region called the nucleolus, which is the site where ribosomes are assembled.
