/sci/ducks, I'm curious.

The protist pictured on the left is Euglena, it is an animal in all respects except one - it has chloroplasts, obviously allowing photosynthesis.

My question is, how did Euglena evolve to have chloroplasts?

Yes, how, because Chloroplasts are unique to plants, and the evolutionary split between plants and animals came before protists.

I'm guessing the animal took them into it's body and started to use them. It's the same way all organelles are said to have come about.

Maybe when you hit puberty, kid, you'll realise that the older you get, the more faggoty Pokemon is and the more cocks you'll suck if you continue playing it.

Lol, this thread was here yesterday. The fact that everyone is focussing only on the very first word is so typical of /sci/.

fix'd.

Euglena didn't evolve to have chloroplasts, per say, it took them into its body and began to use them. This is how the majority of organelles came about.

i assume it took them from some vegetal cell, and were assimilated into it.

There's a worm that does something simmilar: it keeps the chloroplasts of the algae it eats, thus gaining the ability to perform photosyntesis.
