It is almost certain that chloroplasts have evolved from photosynthetic bacteria that found a home inside the plant cell"s cytoplasm: two domains: Bacteria include most of the prokaryotes familiar from everyday life. Eu" = true, karyon" = kernel, nut or nucleus: bigger and more elaborate (as compared with prokaryotes, some live as single-celled orgs (e. g. Amoeba, yeasts: other live in multicellular assemblies. Nucleus : usu the most prominent organelle, enclosed within two concentric membranes that form that nuclear envelope", contains molecules of dna. It is evident that there is a symbiotic rltnshp in which the host eukaryote and the engulfed bacterium helped one another to survive and reproduce.
