Many bacteria live inside us all.

We could not survive without them and they could not survive without us.

They have co-evolved with us in a co-operative relationship that biologists call “mutualism”.

The Origin of the Eukaryotes

Sometimes, when two species co-evolve in a co-operative way, they can become so interdependent that they actually fuse into one species. This is probably what happened when the eukaryotes first evolved some 1.8 million years ago.

Eukaryotes are one of the two “empires” into which biologists classify all living things on earth. The other empire is known as the prokaryotes.
