Through cellular evolution! The mitochondria has a genome of its own. It is extremely similar to bacterial DNA. The thought is that as cellular evolution has occurred the mitochondria may have been phagocytised creating the symbiotic relationship we see in eukaryotic cells today.
What else can I help you with?
What is the movement of particles into the cell?
The movement of large particles of solid food or whole cells into the cell is called phagocytosis. Phagocytosis occurs in three separate steps.
What are white blood cells called that engulf and destroy bacteria?
White blood cells that engulf and destroy bacteria are known as neutrophils. They are a type of phagocyte that play a key role in the immune response against bacterial infections. Neutrophils engulf bacteria through a process known as phagocytosis, helping to eliminate the invading pathogens from the body.
What is another name for cell eating?
The word that means the same thing as cell eating is phagocytosis. The outcome is the ingestion of particulate matter, such as bacteria, from the extracellular fluid.
Do neurons carry on phagocytosis?
Neurons do not typically carry out phagocytosis. Phagocytosis is a process by which certain immune cells engulf and digest pathogens or debris, and neurons are not specialized for this function. Microglial cells, which are a type of immune cell in the brain, are responsible for phagocytosis in the central nervous system.
What process is responsible for bringing in large particles into the cell?
Phagocytosis is the process responsible for bringing in large particles such as bacteria or dead cells into the cell. During phagocytosis, the cell engulfs the particle by forming a phagosome, which then fuses with lysosomes to break down the ingested material.
Where does phagocytosis happen?
Phagocytosis takes place in the blood.
What is the movement of particles into the cell?
The movement of large particles of solid food or whole cells into the cell is called phagocytosis. Phagocytosis occurs in three separate steps.
When a cell ingests a solid particle is it called?
Phagocytosis, a form of endocytosis
Why do animal cells not have chloraplast?
Chloroplasts (as well as Mitochondria) are endosymbionts. This means that they are cells, living within another cell. Historically, eukaryotic cells had no mitochondria or chloroplasts (and mitochondria and chloroplasts existed by themselves outside of cells). The current hypothesis is that a cell tried to engulf a mitochondria (by phagocytosis) but failed in digesting it. Over time, some of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) became part of the host cell's genome. This cell is a common ancestor to both plants and animals, which is why both have mitochondria. A cell with mitochondria then did the same thing with chloroplasts, absorbing one, and taking some of its ctDNA etc. Because not all cells that had mitochondria absorbed chloroplasts there were cells with mitochondria only, and cells with mitochondria and chloroplasts. The ones with chloroplasts evolved to become plant cells, and those without evolved to become animal cells.

What are the difference types of active transport?
endocytosis exocytosis phagocytosis and pinocytosis

Which of these species uses phagocytosis?
Phagocytosis is used by any organisms with a cell that needs to engulf large particles.
What is the difference between endocytosis and phagocytosis?
Phagocytosis is a kind of endocytosis. Endocytosis includes phagocytosis, pinocytosis and receptor-mediated endocytosis. These are just different ways to enter large molecules inside the cell.
How does an amobae eat?
