The nucleus is in all Eukaryotic cells and contains the DNA of the cell. Because the nucleus contains the DNA of the cell, it is most prone to mutations, causing the whole cell to malfunction. An example of a mutation caused by the nucleus is:
When the nucleus malfunctions and mutations are caused, the organism has severe effects and we cannot have a leader who has the power to cause chaos within the cell!
