Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells have a nucleus enclosed within a membrane, as well as other membrane-bound organelles. They are distinguished from prokaryotes, which lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Eukaryotes include organisms such as animals, plants, fungi, and protists. They are the more complex and structurally advanced type of organisms compared to prokaryotes.
Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells contain a distinct nucleus with a membrane. The nucleus houses the organism's DNA, which serves as the genetic material. Eukaryotes also possess other membrane-bound organelles, such as mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi apparatus, which carry out various cellular functions. These organisms can be single-celled entities, called protists, or multicellular organisms such as plants, animals, and fungi. Eukaryotes are characterized by their ability to undergo complex cellular processes like mitosis and meiosis, allowing for growth, reproduction, and genetic variation.
