1. Endosymbiosis A theorized process in
which early eukaryotic
cells were formed from
simpler prokaryotes.
2. endosymbiotic theory a theory that states
that certain kinds of
prokary- otes began
living inside of larger
cells and evolved into
the organelles of
modern-day
eukaryotes
3. Organelles are compartments within
cells
4. Protozoa are single-celled microorgan-
isms

fungi, and algae
9. motility allows? a microorganism to lo-

like sunlight - it also
helps to avoid harmful
substances and
stimuli

development of biofilms and
mats; protection
13. cell wall structural support and
shape
