Cells with nuclei, called eukaryotic cells (which make up virtually all multi-cellular organisms) are much larger and more complex that prokaryotic cells and likely resulted from the early combining of prokaryotic cCells with nuclei, called eukaryotic cells (which make up virtually all multi-cellular organisms) are much larger and more complex that prokaryotic cells and likely resulted from the early combining of prokaryotic ccells (which make up virtually all multi-cellular organisms) are much larger and more complex that prokaryotic cells and likely resulted from the early combining of prokaryotic ccells and likely resulted from the early combining of prokaryotic cellscells.

AS A species made up of eukaryotic cells complete with mitochondria, nuclei and other complex structures, it's easy for us Homo sapiens to look down on the far simpler prokaryotes, the cells of which lack such structures.

In the nucleus of eukaryotic cells, DNA is packaged with histone proteins into complexes known as chromatin, which are further compacted into chromosomes during cell division.

Our current concept of the origin of the eukaryotic cell is in flux, however, and an evolutionary sequence that appears simple when conceptualized on a phylogenetic tree diagram may be far more complex and interesting in reality.

In fact, there's reason to believe that all of the properties of cell biology that made complex life possible in the next geologic era were put in place here: cytoskeletons that allow eukaryotic cells to change shape, and cell polarity that allows cells to send a molecular message to one side of the cell but not the other, and to interact with nearby cells.

«We found that Asgard archaea share many genes uniquely with eukaryotes, including several genes that are involved in the formation of structures that give eukaryotic cells their complex character.

However, even though the Lokiarchaea are relatively complex compared with other known archaea, they lack the large genome and energy - producing mitochondria of true eukaryotic cells.

Mitochondria are complex and dynamic organelles that are essential to the survival of nearly every eukaryotic cell.
