CHAPTER 16
How Ancient Bacteria Changed the World
 Virtually all metabolic pathways on Earth evolved
in prokaryotic cells, before the evolution of
eukaryotes
 The products generated by prokaryotic metabolism
changed the Earth’s atmosphere and rocks
 Fossilized stromatolites from 3 billion years ago
contain the fossils of photosynthetic cyanobacteria
– These bacteria produced O2 and made Earth’s
atmosphere aerobic

Introduction: How Ancient Bacteria Changed the
World
 Living stromatolites still form in the warm, shallow
waters of Shark Bay, western Australia

16.2 Bacteria and archaea are the two main
branches of prokaryotic evolution
 The two prokaryotic domains, Bacteria and
Archaea, diverged soon after life on Earth arose
 Present day Archaea and Eukarya evolved from a
common ancestor, complicated by gene transfer
between prokaryotic lineages
 Some genes of Archaea are similar to bacterial
genes, some are similar to eukaryotic genes, and
some are unique to Archaea

16.12 EVOLUTION CONNECTION: Secondary
endosymbiosis is the key to protist diversity
 What is the origin of the enormous diversity of
protists?
– Complex eukaryotic cells evolved when prokaryotes
took up residence within larger prokaryotes

16.21 EVOLUTION CONNECTION:
Multicellularity evolved several times in
eukaryotes
 Multicellularity evolved in several different lineages,
probably by specialization of the cells of colonial
protists.
– Stramenopile lineage brown algae
– Unnamed lineage red algae, green algae, land plants
– Opisthokont lineage fungi and animals
 Multicellular life arose over a billion years ago.
 By 543 million years ago, diverse animals and
multicellular algae lived in aquatic environments;
plants and fungi colonized land 500 million years ago
