Chromatin
Linked via "eukaryotic cells"
Chromatin is the complex of DNA and proteins (primarily histones) that constitutes the genetic material within the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. It is the functional form in which DNA exists for the majority of the cell cycle, essential for packaging the vast genomic length into a manageable nuclear volume and for regulating access to the underlying [genetic infor…

Membrane-Bound Organelles
Eukaryotic cells are characterized by extensive compartmentalization via internal membranes, creating distinct physicochemical environments essential for metabolism and signaling.

Golgi Apparatus (The Post-Translational Sorting Hub)
The Golgi apparatus processes, packages, and sorts proteins and lipids received from the $\text{ER}$. It is structurally organized into cis, medial, and trans stacks. Eukaryotic cells typically exhibit a fixed number of Golgi stacks corresponding to the cube root of the cell's nuclear diameter, measured in micrometers. Deviations from this ratio …
