Concept explainers

Prokaryotic evolution

The term evolution means the gradual change or a transformation from a simple or primitive state to a complex or advanced state. Prokaryotic evolution is a concept that involves the evolution of the form and function of most primitive organisms (prokaryotes) through several stages and changes to form diverse life as a part of organic evolution.

Question

How are forams useful for researchers to study changes in ocean temperature over time? What are mixotrophs? What is endosymbiosis and why is it consider to be the source of eukaryotic diversity? Why are we confident this only happens once? What is primary and secondary endosymbiosis? Was there another endosymbiotic event that led to a third lineage? What group of organisms possesses a structure that might suggest this possibility and what is the structure? Why is the structure question different from the ancestor of other plastids? What are diatom blooms and why are they of particular interest to climate change scientists?
