    Eukaryote
    Animals, plants, fungi, and protists are `eukaryotes` , organisms whose cells are organized into complex structures by internal membranes and a cytoskeleton. The most characteristic membrane-bound structure is the nucleus. This feature gives them their name, also spelled `eu`c`aryote,` which comes from the Greek ε�..., meaning `good/true`, and κά���...ον, meaning `nut`, referring to the nucleus. In the nucleus, the genetic material, DNA, is arra...
