DNA is found in the nucleus of cells. Which of the following is also found there?

  1. Lipids

  2. Proteins

  3. Carbohydrates

  4. Glycoproteins

The correct answer is: Proteins

Proteins are found in the nucleus of cells in addition to DNA. While lipids, carbohydrates, and glycoproteins may be found in cells, they are not typically found in the nucleus. Proteins have a variety of functions within the nucleus, including helping to organize and condense DNA into chromosomes.
