# Eukarya

- There are two parts to the origin of eukaryotic cells:
  - [[Endosymbiosis]]: Theorized by [[Lynn Margulis]], proposes that
  mitochondria, along with other eukaryotic organelles, first existed as
  independent organisms
  - [[Endomembrane System]]: Documented by [[Christian de Duve]], the
  endomembrane system involves parts of organelles specific to eukaryotic
  organelles, such as the nuclear envelope
- In eukaryotes, [[mitochondria]] have separate DNA from the nuclear genome,
which is evidence for [[Endosymbiosis]]
