[edit] What is the main function of the nuclear membrane?

to keep everything inside of it and unwanted things inside just like the cell membrane. ...

This page reads as though the author's first language wasn't English. Serious editing work needed for clarity and readability.

NonDucor 23:06, 2 April 2006 (UTC) Did some editing to correct vandalism.Also minor fixes (my fisrt language isn't english also :) )



can someone please make this articale clearer to understand? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.192.227.34 (talk) 16:00, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] How does the rDNA relate to the entire DNA structure?

This topic lacks context. Does part of the cell's DNA rearrange itself spacially so that the appropriate parts of the relevant chromosomes are located next to each other and form the nucleolus? Or is rDNA some completely different structure from the genomic DNA?

the nucleolus is important —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.131.245.219 (talk) 19:25, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Not an organelle?

I've read the nucleolus itself is not considered an organelle, but a region inside the nucleous with great production of RNAr. Another point is that it doesn't have a membrane, so it can't be really considered an organelle...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.20.237.53 (talk) 21:10, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
