Verified step by step guidance1
Recall the main organelles in a eukaryotic cell and their primary functions.
Understand that genomic DNA contains the genetic information necessary for cell function and replication.
Identify that the nucleus is the organelle responsible for storing and protecting the cell's genomic DNA.
Recognize that lysosomes are involved in digestion and waste processing, not DNA storage.
Note that the Golgi apparatus and rough endoplasmic reticulum are involved in protein processing and synthesis, not housing genomic DNA.
