A Survey of Eukaryotic Cells and Microorganisms HISTORY OF EUKARYOTES: 1. Evidence indicates that the first Eukaryotic cells first appeared on the earth approximately 2 billion years ago. Fossilized cells appear in shale sediments from China‚ Russia and Australia the date from 850-950 million years ago. 2. Biologists have discovered evidence to suggest that the eukaryotic cell evolved from prokaryotic organisms by a process of intracellular symbiosis. 3. Some of the organelles that

BI108 Animal Biology Lab Report Practical 6: Osmoregulation and Excretion of Vertebrates and Invertebrates Title: Osmoregulation and Excretion of Vertebrates and Invertebrates Abstract: In every aspect of an environment‚ there is a variance in the concentration of fluids present in the environment and the bodies of organisms. Osmoregulation is the regulation of water and ion concentrations in the body. Keeping this regulation precise is critical in maintaining life in a cell

and containing healthy chloroplasts had the higher rate of photosynthesis. INTRODUCTION All living organisms require energy for their metabolic process. The essential source of this energy is the sun. Photosynthetic organisms‚ including plants‚ protists and blue green algae‚ convert light energy into the chemical energy of sugar which can be used as fuel for their metabolism. These organisms are called photoautotrophs since they can create their own food. This is a summary equation for
