long ago, entered living cells not to destroy them, but to cooperate for mutual benefit. These bacteria became the mitochondria, essential parts of cells. We could not live without our own mitochondria.It seems that self-interest, once thought to be the driving force behind evolution, is not necessarily the norm.

section, was 2.1 percent. Other studies showed the same result.The most recent data, produced in late 1990, dealt with mitochondria - little structures in the cell that control the formation of energy - which contain genes. A team led by Maryellen Ruvolo, of Harvard University, studied a 700-gene stretch from mitochondria, a stretch that oversaw the production of an enzyme called ...
cells that make up plants and animals. Nuclei originated as bacterial cells that specialized in hereditary control. Mitochondria were once bacterial cells that specialized in energy formation.Ribosomes were once bacterial cells that specialized in protein production, and so on.In particular, chloroplasts were once bacterial cells that specialized in the use of sunlight for energy. Such ...
