Question

In an animal cheek cell, the nucleus is generally located _________.

• A. In the centre of the cell
• B. On one side of the cell
• C. Near the plasma membrane
• D. Anywhere in the cell

Answer 1

The correct option is A In the centre of the cell

• In an animal cheek cell, the nucleus is located at the center of the cytoplasm. They do not contain a cell wall and a prominent vacuole. Their cytoplasm is denser and granular than plant cells.
• In a plant cell, the nucleus is located towards the periphery of the cell due to the presence of large vacuole.

Thus, the correct answer is 'In the center of the cell.'
