Term: prokaryote and prokaryotic (adj)
Origin: Anc Greek ???-/pro(=before, forward) + ??????/karyon(=kernel, nut)
Literally meaning: without a well defined nucleus.
Coined: in 1925 by French biologist Eduard Chatton (1883 ? 1947) who first used the term in his paper "Pansporella perplex: Reflections on the Biology and Phylogeny of the Protozoa" and later (1937) in his compendium, Titres et Travaux Scientifiques" .
Definition:
An organism that lacks a cell nucleus , or indeed any other membrane- bound organelles.

Prokaryotic Cells Prokaryote is a cell or an organism that lacks a nucleus and other membrane enclosed organelles and most of their DNA is a single circular molecule. All bacteria are prokaryotic cells. The word "prokaryote" means "before the nucleus"...
