How did eukaryotes ever show up?
7
Mitochondria have their own DNA… its circular weirdddddddddddd
8
Mitochondria has its own membrane… what a eukaryote’s cell membrane was not good enough!?
9
Mitochondria have enzymes and transport system on their inner membranes similar to prokaryotes alive today
10
Mitochondria divide themselves THERE IS NO WAY TO MAKE MORE Mitochondria if you remove them from a cell
11
Mitochondria have their own ribosomes
12
All of the above also applies to chloroplasts and other “plastids”
13
Chloroplasts and mitochondria are nearly the exact same size as bacteria
14
The theory of endosymbiosis Some bacteria engulfed other bacteria Instead of digesting the bacteria, the two lived together and each was benefitted How we think eukaryotes came to be
15
Endosymbiosis Protists formed by endosymbiosis Protists are presumably the ancestors of all multicellular organisms
16
Origin of Mitochondria and Plastids Endosymbiont theory proposes that mitochondria and plastids were formerly small prokaryotes that began living within larger cells An endosymbiont is a cell that lives within a host cell Prokaryote ancestors to mitochondria and plastids probably entered the host cell as undigested prey or internal parasites © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
17
The relationship between endosymbiont and host cells was mutually beneficial Anaerobic host cells benefited from endosymbionts’ ability to take advantage of an increasingly aerobic world Heterotrophic host cells benefited from the nutrients produced by photosynthetic endosymbionts In the process of becoming more interdependent, the host and endosymbionts would have become a single organism © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
18
Serial endosymbiosis supposes that mitochondria evolved before plastids through a sequence of endosymbiotic events © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Concept 25.1: Eukaryotes arose by endosymbiosis more than 1.8 billion years ago Early eukaryotes were unicellular Eukaryotic cells have organelles and are structurally more complex than prokaryotic cells A well-developed cytoskeleton enables eukaryotic cells to have asymmetrical forms and to change shape © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
25
The Fossil Record of Early Eukaryotes Chemical evidence for the presence of eukaryotes dates back to 2.7 billion years ago The earliest fossils of eukaryotic cells are 1.8 billion years old © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
26
Initial diversification of eukaryotes occurred 1.8 to 1.3 billion years ago Novel features of eukaryotes, including complex multicellularity, sexual life cycles, and photosynthesis, arose 1.3 billion to 635 million years ago The first large, multicellular eukaryotes represented by the Ediacaran biota evolved 635 to 535 million years ago © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Concept 25.2: Multicellularity has originated several times in eukaryotes The evolution of eukaryotic cells allowed for a greater range of unicellular forms A second wave of diversification occurred when multicellularity evolved and gave rise to algae, plants, fungi, and animals © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
35
Multicellular Colonies The first multicellular forms were colonies, collections of cells that are connected to one another but show little or no cellular differentiation Multicellular colonies consist of simple filaments, balls, or cell sheets Colonial cells may be attached by shared cell walls or, in cells that lack rigid walls, held together by proteins that physically connect adjacent cells © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

37
Independent Origins of Complex Multicellularity Multicellular organisms with differentiated cells originated multiple times over the course of eukaryotic evolution Genetic and morphological evidence indicates that lineages of red, green, and brown algae, plants, fungi, and animals arose independently from different single-celled ancestors © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
38
Volvox is a multicellular green algae that forms a monophyletic group with a single-celled alga (Chlamydomonas) and several colonial species Volvox and all colonial members of this group have proteins homologous to those found in the cell wall of Chlamydomonas Multicellularity in Volvox may have originated through evolution of increasingly complex colonial forms descended from a single-celled common ancestor © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

40
Only a few novel genes account for morphological differences between Volvox and Chlamydomonas The transition to multicellularity may result from changes in how existing genes are used rather than the origin of large numbers of novel genes © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
41
Steps in the Origin of Multicellular Animals Choanoflagellates are the closest living relatives of animals The common ancestor of choanoflagellates and living animals may have resembled present-day choanoflagellates © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

43
The origin of multicellularity in animals required mechanisms for cells to adhere to each other and to communicate with each other (cell signaling) Molecular similarities in domains of proteins functioning in cell adherence (cadherins) and cell signaling have been found between modern choanoflagellates and representative animals © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
44
Nutritional and Metabolic Adaptations Prokaryotes can be categorized by how they obtain energy and carbon Phototrophs obtain energy from light Chemotrophs obtain energy from chemicals Autotrophs require CO 2 as a carbon source Heterotrophs require an organic nutrient to make organic compounds
45
Energy and carbon sources are combined to give four major modes of nutrition Photoautotrophy Chemoautotrophy Photoheterotrophy Chemoheterotrophy
46
The transition to multicellularity in animals involved new ways of using proteins encoded by genes found in choanoflagellates rather than the evolution of many novel genes © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
47
Concept 25.4: Single-celled eukaryotes play key roles in ecological communities and affect human health The majority of the eukaryotic lineages are composed of protists Protists exhibit a wide range of structural and functional diversity © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
48
Protists are found in diverse aquatic environments Some protists reproduce asexually, while others reproduce sexually, or by the sexual processes of meiosis and fertilization © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
49
Protists show a wide range of nutritional diversity, including Photoautotrophs, which contain chloroplasts Heterotrophs, which absorb organic molecules or ingest larger food particles Mixotrophs, which combine photosynthesis and heterotrophic nutrition © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
50
Photosynthetic Protists Many protists are important producers that obtain energy from the sun In aquatic environments, photosynthetic protists and prokaryotes are the main producers In aquatic environments, photosynthetic protists are limited by nutrients These populations can explode when limiting nutrients are added © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Diatoms are a major component of the phytoplankton After a diatom population has bloomed, many dead individuals fall to the ocean floor undecomposed This removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and “pumps” it to the ocean floor © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
53
The biomass and growth of photosynthetic protists and prokaryotes have declined as sea surface temperature has increased Warmer surface temperatures may prevent nutrient upwelling, a process critical to the growth of marine producers © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Genetic Recombination Genetic recombination, the combining of DNA from two sources, contributes to diversity Prokaryotic DNA from different individuals can be brought together by transformation, transduction, and conjugation Movement of genes among individuals from different species is called horizontal gene transfer
67
Transformation and Transduction A prokaryotic cell can take up and incorporate foreign DNA from the surrounding environment in a process called transformation Transduction is the movement of genes between bacteria by bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria)

Conjugation and Plasmids Conjugation is the process where genetic material is transferred between prokaryotic cells In bacteria, the DNA transfer is one way In E. coli, the donor cell attaches to a recipient by a pilus, pulls it closer, and transfers DNA
74

75
The F factor is a piece of DNA required for the production of pili Cells containing the F plasmid (F + ) function as DNA donors during conjugation Cells without the F factor (F – ) function as DNA recipients during conjugation The F factor is transferable during conjugation

Four Supergroups of Eukaryotes It is no longer thought that amitochondriates (lacking mitochondria) are the oldest lineage of eukaryotes Many have been shown to have mitochondria and have been reclassified Our understanding of the relationships among protist groups continues to change rapidly One hypothesis divides all eukaryotes (including protists) into four supergroups © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
