(Biyoloji) (Also eucaryote) An organism consisting of a cell or cells in which the genetic material is DNA in the form of chromosomes contained within a distinct nucleus (that is, all living organisms other than the bacteria and archaea)
The living world is divided into two classes of organism Eukaryotic and, much simpler, prokaryotic organisms such as bacteria Generally eukaryotes are diploid and their cells have internal organelles, such as nuclei Prokaryotes are haploid with much simpler cells
Literally "true nucleus", the term applies to all protists, plants, animals, and fungi Eukaryotic cells have internal membranes which partition them into regions for different functions, such as mitochondria, plastids, the ER, Golgi apparatus, etc They also possess a cytoskeleton which helps them control their shape
Living species which cells have a nuclear membrane separating the nucleus from the cytoplasm, as opposed to prokaryotic
descriptive of organisms with cells having a distinct nucleus with nDNA, and intracellular membranes This includes all protists, fungi, plants and animals The organisms are termed eucaryotes
An organism that uses a membrane to enclose its nucleus and organelles in its cells
Having cells with a membrane-bound nucleus, membrane-bound organelles, and chromosomes in which DNA is associated with proteins
Organisms whose cells have a nucleus, chloroplasts in plants and mitochondria, (see prokaryotic)
Describes those cells that have their genetic material (chromosomes) contained within a nucleus
