Answer: to send instructions to different parts of the cell.

The nucleus contains the cell's DNA and acts as the control center, directing cell activities (growth, metabolism, protein production). (For reference: breaking down waste is lysosomes; sorting/packaging is the Golgi; making lipids is the smooth ER.)
