Prokaryote: Evolution, Structure & Environment

A prokaryote (/proʊˈkærioʊt, -ət/; from Ancient Greek πρό pró, meaning "before"; and κάρυον káruon, meaning "nut" or "kernel"), less commonly spelled procaryote, is a cellular organism that lacks a distinct cell nucleus or other membrane-bound organelles. In the earlier two-empire system, prokaryotes formed the empire Prokaryota; in the current…
