The nucleus is so important, that it has things named after it! NUCLEIC acids! And these nucleic acids are imperative, but they’re named after the thing that houses them! NUCLEUS! @MsArmstrongWHS #WHS2017Slampaign
The nucleus is so much more complex than all the other organelles that scientists don’t even know all of its functions. Did you know that in addition to creating ribosomes, the nucleolus may be involved in the aging of the cell? Come solve new mysteries with nuclei every day!
The nucleus contains gems! Yes, you read that right...gems! It’s a name for tightly coiled, small Cajal bodies, which associate themselves with nucleoli, but yes! They’re still gems! #nucforpres#fullofgems @MsArmstrongWHS #WHS2017Slampaign
The nucleus has telomeres: specific areas in the nuclear envelope where each chromosome is anchored. See...the nucleus really cares for the things it houses, and makes sure that they have their own, isolated areas within the inner nuclear space #nucforpres @MsArmstrongWHS
The nucleus has more control over you than your parents do. You think your parents have power over you. How about the organelle that knows everything about you...even the personal information that you may not be aware of #nucknowseverything#nucleuspower @MsArmstrongWHS
Nuclei are made up of all different kinds of organic molecules! Their composition is abundant and diverse. There are proteins, lipids in the membrane, carbohydrates, and all the nucleic acids are what makes up the genetic material! #diversity#wellroundednucleus @MsArmstrongWHS
Fun Fact: the nucleus contains about 6 feet of DNA! 6 feet of DNA in a tiny little cell! That’s crazy! No wonder that the nucleus often takes up 10% of the cell’s volume. It’s needed to store so much information! #densenucleus @MsArmstrongWHS #WHS2017Slampaign
The nucleoplasm in the nucleus contains so much stuff! Like...chromatim, nucleoli, ribosomes and other structures...like check out the density of that nucleus though! Its got so much! Full of energy and important thoughts! #votefornuc @MsArmstrongWHS #WHS2017Slampaign
Your wonderful nuclei house their own proteins. They’re so important, that they get their own servants to aid in their functioning as the control center of all of your body’s functions. The most important things need the highest quality of care! #nucleiforever @MsArmstrongWHS
Cell division, which is the foundation of your life, starts in the nucleus, by the replication of DNA. The nucleus is a fundamental aspect of diversity of life! Cherish that! The nucleus is the best! #nucforprez
The nucleolous, happily housed in the nucleus...yeah...it makes ribosomes, which are used in protein synthesis, and, I’m pretty sure proteins are imperative to living creatures...my point?...all important functions start in the nucleus #nucleusisagoodhouse @MsArmstrongWHS
Since it’s almost Thanksgiving, I want to say that I am thankful for nuclei. Imagine if you had to control every single protein that was synthesized in your body. That would be too much. The nucleus does that for you! #thankfulfornuclei @MsArmstrongWHS #WHSSlampaign2017
That food vacuole tho, only used to store food. Food that is transported into the cell. Food for energy. But um...what drives metabolism? Oh yeah, the nucleus, controlling EVERYTHING!! #nucleusimportance @MsArmstrongWHS #WHS2017Slampaign
The nucleus is selective and better than some random substance. It’s got its VERY OWN MEMBRANE to make all of the important decisions: whether something can enter the control tower of the cell...not everything is worthy enough to get close to genetic material #gottabeworthy
The nucleus is full of genetic material, and that makes you, you! The nucleus is your identity! The nucleus is you! It defines you! #nucleusforpresident#WHS2017Slampaign @MsArmstrongWHS
Flagellum...ah what a wonderful thing. THING, one singular thing, kinda “moves” the cell. But...um...it’s controlled by the nucleus. The nucleus controls the movement of the flagella. Right...so the flagella is DEPENDENT on the nucleus #controltower#votefornuc#WHS2017Slampaign
