The Endosymbiotic Theory

• Review
• What is a theory?
• What is the difference between prokaryotic and
  eukaryotic cells?
• The endosymbiotic theory is the idea that a long
  time ago, prokaryotic cells engulfed other
  prokaryotic cells by endocytosis. This resulted
  in the first eukaryotic cells.
• First proposed by Lynn Margulis
• Explains the origin of eukaryotic cells
• Explains the origin of certain membrane-bound
  organelles
