細胞内共生説
Wikipedia definition
1. Endosymbiotic theoryThe endosymbiotic theory concerns the mitochondria, plastids, and possibly other organelles of eukaryotic cells. According to this theory, certain organelles originated as free-living bacteria that were taken inside another cell as endosymbionts. Mitochondria developed from proteobacteria (in particular, Rickettsiales, the SAR11 clade, or close relatives) and chloroplasts from cyanobacteria.
