akaryote
Akaryocytes, also known as akaryotes or acaryotes, are cells without a nucleus. The most common type of akaryocytes are viruses. The name is derived from the Greek prefix "a-", meaning "without" and the Greek "karyo-", meaning "nut" or "kernel". Akaryocytes also include viruses since they lack a nucleus and cytoplasm but have instead, a central core of RNA or DNA. Akaryocytes are not part of the seven main ranks of taxa. Red blood cells are also classified as akaryocytes because they lack a cell nucleus after they have developed.

akaryote
An akaryote is an organism that lacks a true nucleus or any other membrane-bound organelic structures, such as bacteria and archaea. The term contrasts with eukaryotes, which have a defined nucleus containing the organism's genetic material. Akaryotes are generally simpler and smaller than eukaryotes, and their genetic material is typically a single loop of DNA rather than the multiple, linear chromosomes found in eukaryotes.
