Snippet: A classic non-viral example that illustrates this point is the integration of the mitochondrion into the cells of ancient prokaryotes or eukaryotes. This kind of relationship is considered symbiogenic, meaning that once separate organisms have now fused into a distinct new species [18] . Either by phagocytosis or infection, an endosymbiosis was established in which the mitochondrial bacterial progenitor supplied some benefit to its host. Millions.....
Document: A classic non-viral example that illustrates this point is the integration of the mitochondrion into the cells of ancient prokaryotes or eukaryotes. This kind of relationship is considered symbiogenic, meaning that once separate organisms have now fused into a distinct new species [18] . Either by phagocytosis or infection, an endosymbiosis was established in which the mitochondrial bacterial progenitor supplied some benefit to its host. Millions of years later, mitochondria are part of all eukaryotic organisms with functions spanning energy production, innate immunity, and membrane potential, to name a few [113, 114] .
