nucleuses
Hearts of cells
Nucleuses is a plural of nucleus, the central or essential part of something.
In biology, the nucleus is the membrane-bound organelle containing a cell's genetic material.
In physics, it's the dense core of an atom.
More broadly, a nucleus is any central point around which other things gather: These five employees formed the nucleus of the new department.
The Latin plural nuclei is more common in scientific contexts.
