(a) chromosomes
(b) bacteria
(c) nucleoplasm
(d) nucleolus
Correct Answer: (c) nucleoplasm
Explanation:
The nucleus is a spherical organelle found in eukaryotic cells, enclosed by a nuclear envelope, and containing nucleoplasm as liquid material. It contains chromosomes and is rich in DNA. Controlling gene expression, and DNA replication are the major functions of the nucleus.
