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]]
