I would look inside the nucleus (B) - that's where DNA is located. It's also called nuclean DNA because of this. The DNA is found in Chromosomes, which are kind of "packages" of  DNA.

Cells can regulate what they need or don't need to maintain their own health. True False
Yakvenalex [24]
True. This is called cellular homeostasis. This happens when cells are able to produce and excrete materials within their environment to regulate processes like cellular respiration, phagocytosis, and pinocytosis. If cells are not able to do this, mutations and excessive cellular division may occur causing abnormalities in specific organisms.
