Document Summary

Meaning of endosymbiosis: a living organism living within the cell of another living organism - they help each other out. May have been an anaerobic bacterium that had an endomembrane system. Why eukaryotic cells can be larger and more complex than prokaryotes: bacteria and archaea have their centers of oxidative phosphorylation on their plasma membranes. Evidence for lateral gene transfer from organelles to the nucleus: genes that code for proteins found in mito/chloro are not found and expressed in the nucleus ( e. g - proteins that make up complex 1) Hypothesis for why genes move to the nucleus from organelles (lateral gene transfer: coordinated control / put them under tighter nuclear control, integrates the metabolism of the entire cell (see lecture 11) Possible reasons why certain genes have not moved to the nucleus from organelles: lecture 11. Lecture 11 - intro to prokaryotic gene structure. Relative sizes of typical mitochondrial, chloroplast, and nuclear genomes.

The endosymbiont theory suggests that mitochondria and chloroplasts evolved from ancient bacteria that were ingested by primitive nucleated cells. Biologists have proposed that endosymbiosis led to the evolution of other cellular structures, such as flagella and peroxisomes, as well. Over hundreds of millions of years, the ingested bacteria lost features not essential for survival inside the host cell.

Part B

Explain your reasoning.

Drag the terms on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to complete the sentences.

phagocytosis

pinocytosis

phagocytic

pinocytic

invaginations

protrusions

An identical arrangement of membranes follows _: the ingested bacterium is surrounded by the membrane of the _ vacuole. The thylakoid membrane systems found in chloroplasts may also be derived from ingested bacteria, because thylakoids form from _ of the inner membrane that pinch off to generate a separate membrane system.

Part E

Peroxisomes, unlike mitochondria or chloroplasts, scarcely resemble free-living organisms. Assuming peroxisomes evolved from ingested bacteria, describe three features mitochondria retain but peroxisomes apparently lost over hundreds of millions of years.
