The nucleus of the cell is primarily responsible for **controlling the activities of the cell**. It contains the cell's genetic material (DNA), which regulates processes such as growth, metabolism, and reproduction by directing the synthesis of proteins. While the other functions mentioned are important cellular processes, they are carried out by other organelles, such as mitochondria (energy production), the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus (protein and lipid processing), and chloroplasts (in plants, for photosynthesis).
