The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell is typically round or oval in shape and contains the genetic material of the cell. It is surrounded by a double membrane called the nuclear envelope, which contains pores that allow for the passage of molecules in and out of the nucleus.
Please note that the nucleus is not always perfectly round and may vary in shape and size depending on the type of cell.

Nucleus of a Eukaryotic Cell
Parts:
- Nuclear Envelope: Double membrane separating nucleus from cytoplasm. - Nuclear Pores: Channels in nuclear envelope allowing movement of molecules. - Nucleolus: Dense, round structure responsible for ribosome production. - Chromatin: DNA and protein complex that condenses into chromosomes during cell division. - Chromosome Territory: Region of nucleus where a particular chromosome is located. - Centrosome: Organelle involved in cell division. - Nuclear Matrix: Framework supporting the nucleus and organizing its components.
