Homologous chromosomes contain the same genes and the same locations, or loci but may have different alleles. But jsut so this definition makes sense, lets define some of the words. 
A gene contains the traits that is passed down from two parents to its offspring. An allele is one part of a pair of genes that are located in a particular spot that controls the same trait.

The way you breathe and the way your heart beat changes when you run fast.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Your body sends a message to the lungs and tell the lungs to breathe in more oxygen so that the oxygenated blood can travel to the muscles oxygenating the cells within that specific muscle and giving them energy to use the sugars stored in fat or food from digestion. The heart beats faster so that the cells supply keeps up and continues to beat fast for that specific diration of time until your breathing slows down and it no longer needs to work as fast to supply the muscles with as much blood.

Mariulka [41]

As per the question, model of cell looks like a city where different buildings correspond to different organelles ( membrane bound subcellular compartments like nucleus, golgi complex, vacuole, endoplasmic reticulum).

Nucleus is a specialized membrane bound compartment that possesses the genetic material ( DNA) of the Eukaryotes ( like plants and animals).

Nucleus controls all the essential activities of the cell by regulating the expression of gene ( segment of DNA corresponding to a particular protein).

Therefore, in the model of cell, city hall;control center represents the nucleus of the cell.
