Lynn Margulis and the Eukaryotic Cells | AMS OpenMind
Inside each of our cells, there are specialized structures that function like power plants and remarkably resemble bacteria. 🦠 How is this possible? The answer lies in a revolutionary theory proposed by a brilliant scientist over 50 years ago.
From a young age, Lynn Margulis was exceptionally precocious. By 16, she had entered university, and by 20, she had completed her studies in zoology and genetics. 🧬 During this time, one of her professors discovered DNA inside chloroplasts, the engines of photosynthesis in plant cells. This controversial finding sparked Margulis’s curiosity, leading her to delve into it for her doctoral thesis. 🔬
Margulis reviewed previous microbial studies and made a surprising observation: mitochondria and chloroplasts in animal, plant, and fungal cells resemble...

A film by John Feldman / A Bullfrog Films and Icarus Films Release
http://www.icarusfilms.com/bf-symb
SYMBIOTIC EARTH: HOW LYNN MARGULIS ROCKED THE BOAT AND STARTED A SCIENTIFIC REVOLUTION explores the life and ideas of Lynn Margulis, a brilliant and radical scientist, whose unconventional theories challenged the male-dominated scientific community and are today fundamentally changing how we look at our selves, evolution, and the environment.
As a young scientist in the 1960s, Margulis was ridiculed when she first proposed that symbiosis was a key driver of evolution, but she persisted. Instead of the mechanistic view that life evolved through random genetic mutations and competition, she presented a symbiotic narrative in which bacteria joined together to create the complex cells that f...

Chromosome (24) mtDNA - Lynn Margulis and the mitochondrial DNA
EXPLORE THE RI ADVENT CALENDAR: http://rigb.org.uk/advent
When we're born we usually inherit our father's surname but we also inherit a rather unique type of DNA from our mothers -- mitochondrial DNA. Aoife McLysaght explains how this special genetic link can be traced back to the origins of humans, and tells the story of the remarkable female scientist who figured out where our mitochondria came from in the first place.

Inside each of our cells, there are specialized structures that function like power plants and remarkably resemble bacteria. 🦠 How is this possible? The answer lies in a revolutionary theory proposed by a brilliant scientist over 50 years ago.
From a young age, Lynn Margulis was exceptionally precocious. By 16, she had entered university, and by 20, she had completed her studies in zoology and genetics. 🧬 During this time, one of her professors discovered DNA inside chloroplasts, the engines of photosynthesis in plant cells. This controversial finding sparked Margulis’s curiosity, leading her to delve into it for her doctoral thesis. 🔬
Margulis reviewed previous microbial studies and made a surprising observation: mitochondria and chloroplasts in animal, plant, and fungal cells resembled tiny cells within a cell, each with its own membrane and capable of dividing. They even had their own DNA, similar to bacteria! 🧫
In 1967, after 15 failed attempts, Margulis published a paper suggesting that eukaryotic cells evolved from symbiotic relationships between different bacteria. One cell engulfed another, and instead of consuming it, they formed an association. Over time, these free-living cells became today’s mitochondria and chloroplasts. 🌱
Initially, the scientific community was skeptical. In an era dominated by Darwinian ideas of survival of the fittest, Margulis’s theory proposed cooperation as a key driver of early evolution. 🧩 Fortunately, advances in molecular biology and DNA sequencing later proved her hypothesis, showing that the DNA of mitochondria and chloroplasts is very similar to that of certain bacteria. 🧬
Margulis’s work not only redefined our understanding of evolution but also reminds us that the most profound advances come from collaboration, not rivalry.

As a young scientist in the 1960s, Margulis was ridiculed when she first proposed that symbiosis was a key driver of evolution, but she persisted. Instead of the mechanistic view that life evolved through random genetic mutations and competition, she presented a symbiotic narrative in which bacteria joined together to create the complex cells that formed animals, plants and all other organisms — which together form a multi-dimensional living entity that covers the Earth. Humans are not the pinnacle of life with the right to exploit nature, but part of this complex cognitive system in which each of our actions has repercussions.
Filmmaker John Feldman traveled globally to meet Margulis’ cutting-edge colleagues and continually asked: What happens when the truth changes? Symbiotic Earth examines the worldview that has led to climate change and extreme capitalism and offers a new approach to understanding life that encourages a sustainable and symbiotic lifestyle.
