Q

Three Origins of Life

A

Eukarya
Archaea
Bacteria

17
Q

Endosymbiosis Theory

A

That a eukaryotic cell engulfed a non photosythetic aerobic bacterium, forming an endosybiont mitochondrion.
And that a eukaryotic cell engulfed a prokaryotic cell that could carry out photosythesis, forming an endosymbiont chloroplast.
