Document Summary

Introduction to cells, diversity and information flow: prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, origins of eukaryotes, diversity and model systems. All organisms are comprised of 1 or more cells. The cell is the smallest structural unit of life. Vacuole - provides turgor pressure and stores waste and water. Heterotroph - has to take in nutrients from outside. The anaerobic heterotroph (prokaryote) evolved to generate some of the internal membranes which then formed enclosed membranes -> eukaryote with a membrane bound nucleus. The first eukaryotic common ancestor (feca) is able to take in nutrients from the environment and engulf it in (engulfing cells) - heterotroph. The last eukaryotic common ancestor (leca) uses oxygen to produce energy thus it is an aerobic eukaryote. Has already engulfed the anaerobic prokaryote and provides it with nutrients. This occurred very gradually over geological periods of time. It is believed the the leca gave rise to all the other eukaryotic cells today.
