The evolution of eukaryotic cells most likely involved evolution of an endomembrane system and subsequent evolution of mitochondria from a portion of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum endosymbiosis of an oxygen using bacterium in a larger bacterial host cell the endosymbiont evolved into chloroplasts endosymbiosis of an oxygen using bacterium in a larger bacterial host cell the endosymbiont evolved into mitochondria O endosymbiosis of a photosynthetic archaeal cell in a larger bacterial host cell to escape toxic oxygen the anaerobic archaea evolved into chloroplasts
