Solution

The correct option is C

Controller


The nucleus acts as the control centre of the activities of the cell. The entire content of a living cell is known as protoplasm. It includes the cytoplasm and the nucleus. The protoplasm is called the living substance of the cell. The nucleus contains thread-like structures called chromosomes. These carry genes and help in inheritance or transfer of characters from the parents to the offspring. Genes have all the information to carry out all the processes of the cell.
