Another interesting fact is that mitochondria are only inherited from your mother, and from their mother, and from their mother…. Sperm only carry DNA which ends up in the nucleus of a cell. So if you go back say 10 generations, you will have 1024 ancestors (unless there was intermarriage), but your mitochondrial DNA comes from just one of those! Just like the Y-chromosome comes from just one for men, that being your father’s father’s father’s father etc.

[@Rudol_Zeppili]

Yup, but most of the proteins in mitochondria are actually in the chromosomes in the nucleus of the cell rather than the mDNA (only the electron transport chain proteins and the ribosomes necessary to replicate the mDNA are encoded by the mDNA) so all of your ancestors contribute to the mitochondria. Things like the citric acid cycle proteins, which is necessary for the electron transport chain proteins to work, are encoded in DNA from your chromosomes

[@allhopeabandon7831]

Yes and no. Animal cells are more like a colony of separate prokaryotic organisms living inside a much larger one that first started ingesting but not digesting them over a billion years ago. Every major organelle inside animal cells likely began as an ingested organism that led to an endosymbiotic relationship.

According to Dr. Nick Lane "The Vital Question" 2015, the inclusion of an ancient bacteria (that became the mitochondria) into a prokaryotic cell (that became a eukaryotic cell) occurred only one time about 2 billion years ago. Yes, you read that correctly, only one time ever on this planet. Not once like a bunch of mitochondria entered a bunch of random cells, but only one unique time did this happen. What is the statistical improbability of this?? It's mind numbing how improbable that event is AND that it took 2 billion of the 4 billion years life has existed on this earth to have occurred.

[@thekaxmax]

Mitochondria have particularly unique genetics because they don't need a lot of the replication machinery because they outsourced that. They turned from individual organisms into organelle. The genetics they do have has been matched to the bacteria mentioned.

[@aniksamiurrahman6365]

@@thekaxmax Actually, those unique genetic code doesn’t hamper Mitochondria's capacity to express its genome, what its left with. So I think its more about isolation from external ecosystem by which Mitochondria never had to change its ancient and niche genetic code.

[@DeirdreSM]

Fun fact: red blood cells start out their life with nuclei. They are denucleated in a multi-stage process known as erythropoeisis (kicked off by the kidneys when they sense oxygen levels are too low), and get ejected from the bone marrow after denucleation. The reason for this is pretty simple: a red blood cell can carry more oxygen if there's no nucleus, and can fit in narrower blood vessels because the cell becomes smaller (and are disc-shaped so they can fold and fit in blood vessels narrower than the cell). This makes RBCs (red blood cells) more efficient at delivering oxygen, allowing the body to have more higher-level function. However, because there isn't molecular machinery inside an RBC, that means they need external assistance in packing and unpacking iron (through enzymes like ferroportin and transferrin), etc. Outside the RBC: Iron, being toxic, is generally packed into a little protein cage called ferritin. Ferritin's produced by bacteria on up and even some plants make it, and it prevents overdoses and underdoses of iron locally by storing it until it's needed.
