Answer: Nucleus

Explanation:

The nucleus is referred as the brain of the cell because it contains the genetic information necessary to carry out cellular functions.

Inside the nucleus, there is the genetic material called chromosomes, made of DNA that carry the necessary instructions to direct cell activities. Because, <u>DNA carries information necessary for the synthesis of proteins that form tissues and perform various biological functions</u>. The functions of proteins are to maintain their integrity, defend themselves against external agents, repair damage, control and regulate functions, and others.

Practically, proteins are in charge of almost everything in the organism. And since they are made according to the information encoded in the genetic material inside the nucleus, this organelle is called the brain of the cell.

Incomplete question. Attached is the image of the map below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

From the map, we could notice the contour lines around the Chimney Bluff areas are closely packed together. In other words, the spacing between the contour lines is narrower than those found in other locations.

This assertion is accurate because it is a standard practice in many maps to indicate the steepness of an area by having the contour lines in close proximity.

What is the primary function of nucleic acids?

Ber [7]

Nucleic acids are biochemical macromolecules that store and transfer genetic information in the cell. They use their stored genetic information to direct the synthesis of new proteins in the cell. New proteins can be synthesized by the ribosomes from the DNA and genes held in the nucleic acids.
