In the eukaryotic cell, the nucleus is separated from the cytoplasm by a double lipid bilayer membrane known as a nuclear membrane. It encloses the genetic material of a cell. It is also known as karyotheca.

A eukaryotic cell has a nucleus bounded by a double wall membrane structure known as a nuclear membrane. The nuclear membrane has nuclear pore that regulates the exchange of materials between cytoplasm and nucleoplasm. The nucleus contains the chromatin threads and the nucleolus. The gel-like texture of the nucleoplasm embedded with chromatin threads gives it a dense appearance.

A eukaryotic cell has a nucleus, bounded by a double wall membrane structure known as a nuclear membrane. The nuclear membrane is a discontinuous membrane having nuclear pores, which act as a protein channel for regulating the exchange of materials between cytoplasm and nucleoplasm. It regulates the cell in various ways but, the primary function of the nucleus is to contribute in cell division during reproduction by undergoing karyokinesis.
So, the correct answer is option D.

The DNA is the genetic material of the organism which is present in the nucleus. The DNA is bound to the histone proteins and packaged in the nucleus. The DNA contains the segments of genes which encode for the proteins. This genetic information is present in the nucleus of the living cells. 

Cyanobacteria are prokaryotes so, they lack a membrane-bound well-defined nucleus. Cell membrane and ribosomes are the cell structures, common to both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

DNA is stored in the nucleus, while proteins are assembled from free amino acids in the cytoplasm in structures called ribosomes.

Nucleus and mitochondria are double membrane-bound organelles while ribosome is not membrane bound. Prokaryotes are the organisms that lack any membrane-bound organelles which means that out of given options, only ribosomes are present in them. 

The nucleus is the largest and most significant living organelle of the cell. All the cellular activities of the cell are regulated by the nucleus. Hence it is called brain or control centre of the cell. The nucleus is surrounded by a double unit membrane from all sites. The chromosomes and genes which have genetical characters and transmit from one generation to another are found in the nucleus. Thus option D is the correct answer. 

The nucleus is an important cell organelle. It is the repository of genetic material. Inside nucleus, there is a synthesis of mRNA which is subsequently transported to the cytoplasm for protein synthesis. Thus, nucleus controls proteins synthesized in a cell and also is a repository of genetic material. Hence, the nucleus is controlling centre of the cell.

'Karyon' refers to the nucleus and 'logy' stands for systematic study. Hence, Karyology is the study of the nucleus. It can be defined as a cytological study of the cell nucleus, especially regarding the chromosomes.
