Lecture no. 3 from the course: Major Transitions in Evolution
Taught by Professor Anthony Martin and 1 others | 28 min | Categories: The Great Courses Plus Online Science Course
Complex life traces back to the Proterozoic eon, when simple one-celled organisms called prokaryotes evolved specialized structures and became new types of cells called eukaryotes. Investigate how this major transition took place, paving the way for the profusion of life forms explored in the rest of the course.
