Study Notes
Endosymbiotic Theory
- The Endosymbiotic Theory was proposed by scientist Lynn Margulis.
- The main idea of the Endosymbiotic Theory is that the main organelles of the eukaryotic cell originated from ancient bacteria that were engulfed by the cell and formed a symbiotic relationship.
Origin of Eukaryotic Cell Organelles
- The main organelles of the eukaryotic cell, such as mitochondria and chloroplasts, were originally ancient bacteria that were engulfed by the cell.
Response to the Endosymbiotic Theory
- The initial response to Lynn Margulis' theory was met with skepticism and resistance.
Evidence Supporting the Endosymbiotic Theory
- Lynn Margulis studied the similarities between bacteria and eukaryotic cell organelles to support her theory.
Viral Replication
- The stage of viral replication that involves the release of new viral particles from the host cell is called lysis.
- The process of a virus entering a host cell is called penetration.
- The stage of viral replication that involves the virus attaching to the surface of the host cell is called adsorption.
