Answer:

B. The nucleus contains all the genetic information of the cell.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The cell membrane regulates what enters and exits the cell. - this is an important way the cell stays balanced, by ensuring the right substances can enter and exit the cell and ensure the optimal environment is maintained within the cell

B. The nucleus contains all the genetic information of the cell. - this is true, but is not a mechanism of homeostasis

C. Lysosomes break down molecules to excrete from the cell. - this is an important way of ensuring waste products do not build up inside the cell

D. A cell began to repair skin cells through the process of mitosis. - this is an important way to maintain tissues
