Eukaryotic genetic material is divided into different, [3] linear molecules called chromosomes inside a discrete nucleus, usually with additional genetic material in some organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts (see endosymbiotic theory).

It was not until 1967 before the endosymbiotic theory was re-popularized again by the late Lynn Margulis, by a model known as the Serial Endosymbiosis Theory, or SET [2].

His work has contributed to the emerging consensus that the endosymbiotic theory is correct; this idea proposes that mitochondria, chloroplasts, and perhaps other organelles of eukaryotic cells originated as prokaryote endosymbionts, which came to live inside eukaryotic cells.

Endosymbiotic theory hypothesizes the origin of chloroplasts similarly, where chloroplasts a eukaryote with mitochondria engulfs a photosynthetic cyanobacteruim in a symbiotic relationship ending in the chloroplast organelle.

Endosymbiotic theory, that attempts to explain the origins of eukaryotic cell organelles such as mitochondria in animals and fungi and chloroplasts in plants was greatly advanced by the seminal work of biologist Lynn Margulis in the 1960s.

Endosymbiotic theory posits a later parallel origin of the chloroplasts; a cell ate a photosynthetic cyanobacterium and failed to digest it.

A green alga with throat - and stomach - like structures can swallow and digest bacteria when deprived of light, further bolstering Lynn Margulis's widely accepted idea that the origin of the plant - powering chloroplast was a fortuitous bout of indigestion.Termed «Endosymbiotic Theory», the idea is that early nucleated cells called eukaryotes ate bacteria that managed to escape digestion but also couldn't escape their captors.

After this, the theory fell out of grace, possibly due to the college textbook of E.B. Wilson, who regarded endosymbiotic theories as «too fanciful».
