Document Summary

Endosymbiosis and protists: two lineages of protists come from primary endosymbiosis (red and green algae), plants came from photosynthetic green algae. Some photosynthetic protists have chloroplasts with 3 or more membranes evidence of secondary endosymbiosis events: a cell that is descended from the main endosymbiotic event goes through endosymbiosis again. Some protist clades have evolved from secondary endosymbiosis. Diploid stage sporoph(cid:455)te (produces spores through meiosis: 2. Haploid stage ga(cid:373)etoph(cid:455)te (produces gametes through mitosis: 4.
