Question
What will happen in a cell if its nucleus is removed? Give reasons in support of your answer.
Solution
If the nucleus of a cell is removed, then the cell will die. This is because the nucleus of a cell controls all the metabolic activities in a cell, and if it is not present, then the metabolic functioning of the cell will stop and its protoplasm will dry up ultimately, causing cell death.
