Document Summary

1/24/17: introduction to eukaryotes, eukaryotic cell structures. Size typicall 10-100 um (10x larger than prokaryotic cells) Can be single celled, communities, or multicellular: endosymbiosis. Eukaryotes have: endosymbiotic relationships (mitochondria and chloroplasts) (figure 1, membrane bound organelles/nucleus figure 1. All eukarya share a common ancestor that engulfed a mitochondria. All plants and their relatives share a common ancestory that engulfed a chloroplast. Only two instances of primary (primary endosymbiosis of mitochondria and chloroplast in plant relatives) But rest are land plants, fungi, and animals: excavate, sar clade, archaeplastida, unikonta. Secondary phagocytosis: red algae and green algae occurred frequently. Derived traits: (cid:494)hairy(cid:495) flagellum usually paired with a shorter (cid:494)smooth(cid:495) flagellum. Derived trait: alveoli: flattened vesicles just inside pm-support membrane. Derived trait: skeletal structure of calcium or silica. Primary endosymbiosis of chloroplast: red algae, green algae. Closely related to land plants, very similar chloroplasts. Primary endosymbiosis: initial phagocytosis of bacteria by another cell: unikonta.
