Endosymbiotic Theory Explains the origin of the mitochondria and plastid organelles Degenerate endosymbiotic prokaryotes Allows for hypothesis formation and testing. Copyright 2009, John Ireland
Endosymbiotic Theory Copyright 2009, John Ireland Aerobic Eubacteria Photosynthetic Eubacteria Protoeukaryote Aerobic Eukaryote Photosynthetic Eukaryote
Evidence Supporting Theory Organelle ribosomes more closely resemble eubacterial ribosomes than eukaryotic ribosomes. DNA of Mitochondria is closely related to Rickettsia eubacteria. DNA of Chloroplasts is closely related to blue-green photosynthetic eubacteria. Copyright 2009, John Ireland
