Morphology
nucleate = nucleus (transparent) = nucle + ate
The verb is formed by the productive suffix '-ate' meaning 'to make or become', so its meaning 'to form a nucleus' is directly inferable from 'nucleus'.
Etymology
The verb nucleate comes from the Latin word nucleus, meaning 'kernel' or 'seed', and is related to nuclear. So to nucleate is to form a small central 'seed' or 'core' that other material grows around, like the first tiny ice crystal that starts a larger freeze.
