What is the Endosymbiotic Theory?

States that the eukaryotic chloroplasts and mitochondria evolved from prokaryotes engulfed by a pre-eukaryote (the ancestor of eukaryotes).

New cards
29

Explain the endosymbiotic theory of the evolution of eukaryotes.

States that the eukaryotic chloroplasts and mitochondria evolved from prokaryotes
engulfed by a pre-eukaryote (the ancestor of eukaryotes).

This is how eukaryotic
cells gained access to the processes of cellular respiration and photosynthesis, which
had evolved in bacterial cells.

Over time, the bacteria lost features that made them recognizable as separate cells and became the mitochondria and chloroplasts found
in eukaryotic cells today

New cards
30

Explain the evolution of Eukaryotes?

States that the eukaryotic chloroplasts and mitochondria evolved from prokaryotes engulfed by a pre-eukaryote (the ancestor of eukaryotes).

This is how eukaryotic cells gained access to the processes of cellular respiration and photosynthesis, which had evolved in bacterial cells.

Over time, the bacteria lost features that made them recognizable as separate cells and became the mitochondria and chloroplasts found in eukaryotic cells today

New cards
31

Describe the evidence that supports the endosymbiotic theorytic theory.

Evidence of the endosymbiotic theory generally consists of ways that mitochondria and chloroplasts still resemble bacterial cells (and are different from eukaryotic cells). Here is a list of evidence:

  • Mitochondria and chloroplasts have a small, circular, bacteria-like chromosome.

  • Mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own ribosomes, which are 70S ribosome (like bacteria), not 80S ribosomes (like eukaryotes)

  • Mitochondria and chloroplasts organelles divide independently of their parent cell through a process similar to binary fission.

  • Mitochondria and chloroplasts organelles are surrounded by multiple

    membranes, which is indicative of endocytosis

36

Explain the evolution of the first cells and how they diverged into the three domains of life known today

Additionally, fossils of bacterial cells have been found that are ~3.5 billion years old.

New cards
50

Describe Molecular Evidence

Molecular evidence is primarily based on analysis of DNA sequences can be used to determine relationship, organisms with more similar DNA sequences are more closely related.

Ribosomal RNA genes are found in all organisms and can be used to show the relationship between them.
