Organisms: Eukarya
Terms:
(u CARE ee uh) contains complex organisms (the eukaryotes) that have cells with nuclei.
Eukarya, organisms include protists, plants, animals and fungi Eukaryotic cells are larger and more complex than prokaryotic cells. In addition to a nucleus, they contain many other internal structures (organelles), including mitochondria and chloroplasts.
Importance to Evolution:
Eukarya are important to evolution these cells are considered a milestone in the evolution of life, since eukarya include all complex cells.
Organisms:
Endosymbiosis
Terms: involves an intimate relationship between two species (symbiosis = living together) in which one species lives inside the other species (endo = inside).
