Pre-cell
text:
The terms pre-cell (precell), proto-cell (protocell), etc. are frequently used to designate hypothetical ancestral entities precursing complete cells. The meanings of these terms vary with the different hypotheses for the early evolution of life and, accordingly, with the corresponding publications. There are different hypotheses attempting to explain the origin of the three domains of life from a last universal common ancestor (LUCA). The nature of this ancestral entity remains a major subject
