what is coenocytic
A coenocyte (from Greek: ÎºÎ¿Î¹Î½ÏÏ (koinÃ³s) = common + ÎºÏÏÎ¿Ï (kÃ½tos) = box, i.e. cell) is a multinucleate cell which can result from multiple nuclear divisions without their accompanying cytokinesis, in contrast to a syncytium, which results from cellular aggregation followed by dissolution of the cell membranes inside the mass.
