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, mitochondrion have separate DNA from the nuclear genome, which is evidence for Endosymbiosis
