1. Nuclear Envelope:
* This is a double membrane that surrounds the nucleus.
* It regulates what enters and exits the nucleus, like a gatekeeper.
* Pores in the envelope allow for communication with the cytoplasm.
2. Nucleoplasm:
* This is the jelly-like substance that fills the nucleus.
* It contains various enzymes and other molecules that support nuclear functions.
3. Chromatin:
* This is the genetic material of the cell, composed of DNA and proteins.
* It exists in a loosely packed form (euchromatin) when the cell is active and a tightly packed form (heterochromatin) when it's not actively dividing.
* During cell division, chromatin condenses into chromosomes.
4. Nucleolus:
* This is a dense region within the nucleus.
* It's the site of ribosome synthesis, crucial for protein production.
