In cell biology, the nucleus (pl. nuclei; from Latin nucleus or nuculeus, “little nut” or kernel) is a membrane-enclosed organelle found in most eukaryotic cells. It contains most of the cell's genetic material, organized as multiple long linear DNA molecules in complex with a large variety of proteins, such as histones [w], to form chromosomes. - wikipedia
