Etymology of ENDOSARC

The word "endosarc" is derived from the Greek roots "endo-" meaning "within" or "inner", and "sarkos" meaning "flesh" or "meat". In biology, "endosarc" is used to refer to the inner portion of the cytoplasm in certain single-celled organisms, such as protozoa. The term was coined to distinguish this inner part from the outer portion of the cytoplasm known as "ectosarc", which comes from the Greek roots "ecto-" meaning "outside" or "outer". Therefore, "endosarc" literally means "inner flesh" or "inner meat" in Greek.
