العضيات متعددة الخلايا Multicellular organisms، هي عضيات تتكون من أكثر من خلية، على عكس العضيات وحيدة الخلية.[1]

بعض أنواع وحيدات الخلية يمكن رؤيتها بالعين المكردة. ما يقارب المليونين عضية المتبقية[بحاجة لمصدر] هي عضيات متعددة الخلايا. بصفة خاصة جميع الحيوانات، النباتات البرية والفطريات السوطية هي عضيات متعددة الخلايا، وكذلك الكثير من الطحالب. بعض العضيات تعتبر وحيدة-متعددة الخلايا جزئياً، مثل Dictyostelium.

العضيات متعددة الخلايا مثل النباتات، الفطريات والحيوانات والطحالب البنية تنشأ من خلية واحدة وتُنتج عضية متعددة الخلايا. على النقيض، العضيات المستعمرة أو متعددة الخلايا، تكون نتيجة أفراد متعددة الخلايا تلتحم معاً عن طريق تشكيل مستعمرة، المتشكلة أو المتجمعة على هيئة خيوط. تطورت تعددية الخلايا بشكل مستقل في الڤولڤوكس وبعض الطحالب الخضراء السوطية.[2][3]

تطور متعددات الخلايا من أسلاف وحيدة الخلية تم تكراره معملياً، في تجارب التطور باستخدام predation كضغط تطوري.[4]

التاريخ التطوري

التواجد

نشا التعدد الخلوي بشكل مستقل[4] [5]حوالي 25 مرة على الاقل علاوة علي بعض حقيقيات النواة وفي بعض اوليات النواة [6]مثل البكتيريا الخضراء المزرقةcyanobacteria, والبكتيريا المخاطية myxobacteria والفطريات الخيطية وفطر ac Magnetoglobus multicellularis او Methanosarcin

لكن لم ينشأ الشكل المعقد للكائنات المتعددة الخلايا سوى في ستة مجموعات في الكائنات الحقيقية النواة مثل الحيوانات، والفطريات والطحالب البنية، لكن

However, complex multicellular organisms evolved only in six eukaryotic groups: animals, fungi, brown algae, red algae, green algae, and land plants.[7] It evolved repeatedly for Chloroplastida (green algae and land plants), once or twice for animals, once for brown algae, three times in the fungi (chytrids, ascomycetes and basidiomycetes)[8] and perhaps several times for slime molds and red algae.[9] The first evidence of multicellularity is from cyanobacteria-like organisms that lived 3–3.5 billion years ago.[4] To reproduce, true multicellular organisms must solve the problem of regenerating a whole organism from germ cells (i.e., sperm and egg cells), an issue that is studied in evolutionary developmental biology. Animals have evolved a considerable diversity of cell types in a multicellular body (100–150 different cell types), compared with 10–20 in plants and fungi.[10]

خسارة التعددية الخلوية

معظم الفطريات كائنات متعددة الخلايا، وعلى الرغم من اختفاء التعدد الخلوي في وقت مبكر [11] .في بعض المجموعات حيث توجد مجموعات كبيرة وحيدة الخلايا ( مثل فطر الميكروسبوريديا)

Loss of multicellularity occurred in some groups.[11] Fungi are predominantly multicellular, though early diverging lineages are largely unicellular (e.g., Microsporidia) and there have been numerous reversions to unicellularity across fungi (e.g., Saccharomycotina, Cryptococcus, and other yeasts).[12][13] It may also have occurred in some red algae (e.g., Porphyridium), but it is possible that they are primitively unicellular.[14] Loss of multicellularity is also considered probable in some green algae (e.g., Chlorella vulgaris and some Ulvophyceae).[15][16] In other groups, generally parasites, a reduction of multicellularity occurred, in number or types of cells (e.g., the myxozoans, multicellular organisms, earlier thought to be unicellular, are probably extremely reduced cnidarians).[17]

السرطان

من مشكلات الكائنات متعددة الخلايا، وخاصة الحيوانات التي تعمر طويلا أنها تواجه الإصابة بمرض السرطان، ويحدث هذه المشكلة عندما تفشل الخلية في ضبط كيفية انقسامها المتزامن الطبيعي، ويمكن ملاحظة التغيرات في شكل الأنسجة أثناء هذه العملية، وقد لوحظ مرض السرطان في الحيوانات الكبيرة ( الحيوانات المتطورة )[18]، وحتى في الحيوانات البدائية وتوجد مجادلات حول إحتمالية وجود السرطان في الكائنات متعددة الخلايا الأخرى [19] [20] . فقدان التعدد الخلوي ، لكن بعض كتاب العلوم يتجادلون حول تعرض النباتات للإصابة بالسرطان [21] لكن على سبيل المثال فإن العقد النباتية يمكن وصفها بالأورام.

انفصال الخلايا الجسدية والجرثومية

في بعض عائلات الكائنات متعددة الخلايا والتي تسمى الواسمانيات [22]،لنشأة الإنفصال بين الخلايا الجسدية العقيمة والخلية المشيجية، وعلى الرغم من ذلك، فإن تطور الواسمانيات نادر جدا ( مثل الفقاريات ومفصليات الأرجل وطحلب الفولفوكس ) كجزء أساسي من الأنواع التي لديها تطور جنيني جسدي [23][24] ( مثل النباتات الأرضية، ومعظم أنواع الطحالب، والعديد من اللافقاريات) .

فرضيات الأصل

Tetrabaena socialis consists of four cells.

One hypothesis for the origin of multicellularity is that a group of function-specific cells aggregated into a slug-like mass called a grex, which moved as a multicellular unit. This is essentially what slime molds do. Another hypothesis is that a primitive cell underwent nucleus division, thereby becoming a coenocyte. A membrane would then form around each nucleus (and the cellular space and organelles occupied in the space), thereby resulting in a group of connected cells in one organism (this mechanism is observable in Drosophila). A third hypothesis is that as a unicellular organism divided, the daughter cells failed to separate, resulting in a conglomeration of identical cells in one organism, which could later develop specialized tissues. This is what plant and animal embryos do as well as colonial choanoflagellates.[25][26]

Because the first multicellular organisms were simple, soft organisms lacking bone, shell or other hard body parts, they are not well preserved in the fossil record.[27] One exception may be the demosponge, which may have left a chemical signature in ancient rocks. The earliest fossils of multicellular organisms include the contested Grypania spiralis and the fossils of the black shales of the Palaeoproterozoic Francevillian Group Fossil B Formation in Gabon (Gabonionta).[28] The Doushantuo Formation has yielded 600 million year old microfossils with evidence of multicellular traits.[29]

Until recently, phylogenetic reconstruction has been through anatomical (particularly embryological) similarities. This is inexact, as living multicellular organisms such as animals and plants are more than 500 million years removed from their single-cell ancestors. Such a passage of time allows both divergent and convergent evolution time to mimic similarities and accumulate differences between groups of modern and extinct ancestral species. Modern phylogenetics uses sophisticated techniques such as alloenzymes, satellite DNA and other molecular markers to describe traits that are shared between distantly related lineages.[بحاجة لمصدر]

The evolution of multicellularity could have occurred in a number of different ways, some of which are described below:

نظرية التكافلية

This theory suggests that the first multicellular organisms occurred from symbiosis (cooperation) of different species of single-cell organisms, each with different roles. Over time these organisms would become so dependent on each other they would not be able to survive independently, eventually leading to the incorporation of their genomes into one multicellular organism.[30] Each respective organism would become a separate lineage of differentiated cells within the newly created species.

This kind of severely co-dependent symbiosis can be seen frequently, such as in the relationship between clown fish and Riterri sea anemones. In these cases, it is extremely doubtful whether either species would survive very long if the other became extinct. However, the problem with this theory is that it is still not known how each organism's DNA could be incorporated into one single genome to constitute them as a single species. Although such symbiosis is theorized to have occurred (e.g., mitochondria and chloroplasts in animal and plant cells—endosymbiosis), it has happened only extremely rarely and, even then, the genomes of the endosymbionts have retained an element of distinction, separately replicating their DNA during mitosis of the host species. For instance, the two or three symbiotic organisms forming the composite lichen, although dependent on each other for survival, have to separately reproduce and then re-form to create one individual organism once more.

نظرية تكون الخلايا

This theory states that a single unicellular organism, with multiple nuclei, could have developed internal membrane partitions around each of its nuclei.[31] Many protists such as the ciliates or slime molds can have several nuclei, lending support to this hypothesis. However, the simple presence of multiple nuclei is not enough to support the theory. Multiple nuclei of ciliates are dissimilar and have clear differentiated functions. The macronucleus serves the organism's needs, whereas the micronucleus is used for sexual reproduction with exchange of genetic material. Slime molds syncitia form from individual amoeboid cells, like syncitial tissues of some multicellular organisms, not the other way round. To be deemed valid, this theory needs a demonstrable example and mechanism of generation of a multicellular organism from a pre-existing syncytium.

نظرية المستعمرة

The Colonial Theory of Haeckel, 1874, proposes that the symbiosis of many organisms of the same species (unlike the symbiotic theory, which suggests the symbiosis of different species) led to a multicellular organism. At least some, it is presumed land-evolved, multicellularity occurs by cells separating and then rejoining (e.g., cellular slime molds) whereas for the majority of multicellular types (those that evolved within aquatic environments), multicellularity occurs as a consequence of cells failing to separate following division.[32] The mechanism of this latter colony formation can be as simple as incomplete cytokinesis, though multicellularity is also typically considered to involve cellular differentiation.[33]

ColonialFlagellateHypothesis.png

The advantage of the Colonial Theory hypothesis is that it has been seen to occur independently in 16 different protoctistan phyla. For instance, during food shortages the amoeba Dictyostelium groups together in a colony that moves as one to a new location. Some of these amoeba then slightly differentiate from each other. Other examples of colonial organisation in protista are Volvocaceae, such as Eudorina and Volvox, the latter of which consists of up to 500–50,000 cells (depending on the species), only a fraction of which reproduce.[34] For example, in one species 25–35 cells reproduce, 8 asexually and around 15–25 sexually. However, it can often be hard to separate colonial protists from true multicellular organisms, as the two concepts are not distinct; colonial protists have been dubbed "pluricellular" rather than "multicellular".[2]

The Synzoospore theory

Some authors suggest that the origin of multicellularity, at least in Metazoa, occurred due to a transition from temporal to spatial cell differentiation, rather than through a gradual evolution of cell differentiation, as affirmed in Haeckel’s Gastraea theory.[35]

GK-PID

About 800 million years ago,[36] a minor genetic change in a single molecule called guanylate kinase protein-interaction domain (GK-PID) may have allowed organisms to go from a single cell organism to one of many cells.[37]

دور الڤيروسات

Genes borrowed from viruses and mobile genetic elements (MGEs) have recently been identified as playing a crucial role in the differentiation of multicellular tissues and organs and even in sexual reproduction, in the fusion of egg cell and sperm.[38][39] Such fused cells are also involved in metazoan membranes such as those that prevent chemicals crossing the placenta and the brain body separation.[38] Two viral components have been identified. The first is syncytin, which came from a virus.[40] The second identified in 2007 is called EFF1, which helps form the skin of Caenorhabditis elegans, part of a whole family of FF proteins. Felix Rey, of the Pasteur Institute in Paris has constructed the 3D structure of the EFF1 protein[41] and shown it does the work of linking one cell to another, in viral infections. The fact that all known cell fusion molecules are viral in origin suggests that they have been vitally important to the inter-cellular communication systems that enabled multicellularity. Without the ability of cellular fusion, colonies could have formed, but anything even as complex as a sponge would not have been possible.[42]

نظرية توافر الأكسجين

وتطرح هذه النظرية فرضية أن توافر الأكسجين كان في بداية نشأة كوكب الأرض هو العامل المحدد لظهور الكائنات الحية متعددة الخلايا، وقد بنيت هذه النظرية على العلاقة بين ظهور الكائنات الحية متعددة الخلايا وزيادة مستويات الأكسجين عبر الزمن. ويشمل ذلك نسبة الاكسجين المتاح قد حدثت بعد عملية الأكسدة العظيمة

This theory suggests that the oxygen available in the atmosphere of early Earth could have been the limiting factor for the emergence of multicellular life.[43] This hypothesis is based on the correlation between the emergence of multicellular life and the increase of oxygen levels during this time. This would have taken place after the Great Oxidation Event (GOE) but before the most recent rise in oxygen. Mills[44] concludes that the amount of oxygen present during the Ediacaran is not necessary for complex life and therefore is unlikely to have been the driving factor for the origin of multicellularity.

Snowball Earth Hypothesis

A snowball Earth is a geological event where the entire surface of the Earth is covered in snow and ice. The most recent snowball Earth took place during the Cryogenian period and consisted of two global glaciation events known as the Sturtian and Marinoan glaciations. Xiao[45] suggests that between the period of time known as the "Boring Billion" and the Snowball Earth, simple life could have had time to innovate and evolve which could later lead to the evolution of multicellularity. The snowball Earth hypothesis in regards to multicellularity proposes that the Cyrogenian period in Earth history could have been the catalyst for the evolution of complex multicellular life. Brocks[46] suggests that the time between the Sturtian Glacian and the more recent Marinoan Glacian allowed for planktonic algae to dominate the seas making way for rapid diversity of life for both plant and animal lineages. Shortly after the Marinoan, complex life quickly emerged and diversified in what is known as the Cambrian Explosion.

Predation Hypothesis

The Predation Hypothesis suggests that in order to avoid being eaten by predators, simple single-celled organisms evolved multicellularity to make it harder to be consumed as prey. Herron et al [47] performed laboratory evolution experiments on the single-celled green alga, C. reinhardtii, using paramecium as a predator. They found that in the presence of this predator, C. reinhardtii does indeed evolve simple multicellular features.

Advantages

Multicellularity allows an organism to exceed the size limits normally imposed by diffusion: single cells with increased size have a decreased surface-to-volume ratio and have difficulty absorbing sufficient nutrients and transporting them throughout the cell. Multicellular organisms thus have the competitive advantages of an increase in size without its limitations. They can have longer lifespans as they can continue living when individual cells die. Multicellularity also permits increasing complexity by allowing differentiation of cell types within one organism.

Whether these can be seen as advantages however is debatable. The vast majority of living organisms are single cellular, and even in terms of biomass, single cellular organisms are far more successful than animals, though not plants.[48] Rather than seeing traits such as longer lifespans and greater size as an advantage, many biologists see these only as examples of diversity, with associated tradeoffs.
