<h2>
Nucleus - control center</h2>
The nucleus is called the control center of the cell because:
- The genetic material which is the essence of life is hosted in the nucleus – the DNA-which presents the code of life or information or instructions regarding:
- The structure and function of each cell and the organ it is present,
- Numerous activities of life like reproduction, metabolism, growth, development, etc.
- The nucleus replicates the genetic information and passes to the new daughter cells, generation after generation to continue the life processes.
- The nucleus DNA transcribes the code or information for protein synthesis to the RNA to synthesize proteins in the body which carry out many essential functions in the form of structural proteins, antibodies, hormones, pigments, etc.
- The nucleus DNA synthesizes enzymes which carry out functions like metabolism.
Plants have the fewest similarities with the other two groups of organisms.
<h3>Plants vs animals</h3>
Plants generally comprise all living organisms that have chlorophyll and are able to manufacture their own foods by photosynthesis.
Animals, on the other hand, are living organisms that cannot manufacture their foods and are mobile. Animals are either vertebrates or invertebrates.
Plants qualify as living organisms because they are able to feed, excrete, reproduce, grow, respond to stimuli, die, and carry out other basic characteristics of living organisms.

Answer:
D. Adapt to environmental change
Explanation:
Organisms that cannot adapt to environmental change will die off. Our Earth is constantly changing. It is vital that organisms change with it.
Answer:
Explanation:
Crossing over is the swapping of genetic material that occurs in the germ line. During the formation of egg and sperm cells, also known as meiosis, paired chromosomes from each parent align so that similar DNA sequences from the paired chromosomes cross over one another
