Which of the following observations constitutes evidence that mitochondria evolved before chloroplasts? Mitochondria are aerobic. Chloroplasts are photosynthetic. Aerobic bacteria evolved before photosynthetic bacteria (cyanobacteria). Some protists have separately evolved their own plastids (chloroplast-like structures) through endosymbiosis of cyanobacteria, or even through endosymbiosis of photosynthetic protists. All Eukaryotes have mitochondria; only a subset of Eukaryotes have chloroplasts.

Which of the following provide evidence for an endosymbiotic origin of mitochondria and chloroplasts? Choose all the correct statements. Group of answer choices They are about the same size as free-living cyanobacteria and alpha proteobacteria. The nuclear membrane of eukaryotes is similar to the archaean cell membrane. Organelle genes are often more similar to bacterial genes than those of their eukaryotic host. These organelles have their own circular genomic DNA.
Except for the Plantae, what best describes the origin of chloroplasts in most other eukaryotes? Group of answer choices Chloroplasts evolved independently in different lineages Primary endosymbiosis An amoeboid protist engulfed another protist that had chloroplasts in its tissues Mitochondria were converted to perform photosynthetic functions Eukaryotes outside the Plantae don’t have chloroplasts
Which of the following are lines of evidence for endosymbiosis? Inner membranes are similar to plasma membranes of prokaryotes O DNA structure in chloroplasts and mitochondria are similar to that of prokaryotes Mitochondrial ribosomes are more similar to prokaryotic than eukaryotic ribosomes O The DNA found in the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell is very similar to that of prokaryotes.
An endosymbiont is any organism that lives within the body or cells of another organism. Each would have performed mutually benefiting functions from their symbirie relationship. Why are the mitochondria considered an endosybiont in an eukaryotic cell ? They have two membranes have DNA sequences that indicate origin from the alpha- prroteobacteria has a means for using oxygen and create ATP can break down glucose for energy O They contain hydrolytic enzymes
According to Lynn Margulis's theory of endosymbiosis, bacteria entered large cells either as parasites or as undigested prey as illustrated. All the following are proof that mitochondria and chloroplast evolved from bacteria, except: Endosymbiosis in a nutshell: 1. Start with two 2. One bacterium engulfs the other. 3. One bacterium now lives inside the other. independent bacteria. 4. Both bacteria benefit from the arrangement. 5. The internal bacteria are passed on from generation to generation. O a they each have a double membrane they have chromosomes similar in shape to their host they are the size of bacteria their DNA is different from its host
Which of the following correctly describes the theory of endosymbiosis. Question 9 options: Mitochondria evolved from a genetic mutation within an ancestral prokaryote. An ancestral prokaryote engulfed another prokaryote that eventually evolved into the organelles we recognize as mitochondria and chloroplasts. Some species of prokaryotes can pick up plasmids left behind by other prokaryotes.
Does the following phylogenetic tree provide evidence to support or refute the endosymbiosis hypothesis? Briefly explain your choice (1-2 sentences) Bacteria a-Proteobacteria Mitochondria Archaea Eukarya Excavata Discicristata Alveolata Stramenopila Rhizaria Plantae Opisthokonta Amoebozoa
In lecture, we discussed the endosymbiont theory that describes the evolutionary origins of mitochondria and chloroplast. A few scientists think that peroxisomes also have an endosymbiotic evolutionary origin, although most scientists disagree with this hypothesis. Which of the following hypothetical discoveries would provide support for the hypothesis that peroxisomes evolved from bacteria? Discovering that eukaryotic cells cannot live without peroxisomes. All of these hypothetical discoveries would provide support for the hypothesis that peroxisomes have an endosymbiotic evolutionary origin. Identifying the presence of DNA within peroxisomes. Determining that the majority of proteins in peroxisomes have eukaryotic origin.
Which of the following is NOT a direct descendant of the endosymbiotic event that produced the mitochondrion? Giardia Diatoms Red algae All the above are direct descendants
According to the endosymbiotic theory, which of the following is NOT true about the evolution of life on earth? Eukaryotes and prokaryotes appeared at about the same time and evolved independently from each other. O None of the other four answers (all are true statements) Eukaryotes evolved from symbiotic prokaryotes living inside other prokaryotes Mitochondria and chloroplasts are in some ways similar to prokaryotes The first life on earth was simple organisms, similar to today's prokaryotes
Some non-plant organisms like the protist that spreads malaria contain a non-photosynthetic chloroplast called an apicoplast. Crazy! What best explains how protists have evolved apicoplasts?
Which of the following statement is not a line of evidence supporting the endosymbiotic theory for the evolution of eukaryotes? Question 8 options: Mitochondria and plastids have their own circular DNA which is similar to bacterial DNA. Mitochondria and plastids can both live and reproduce outside of a cell. Mitochondria and plastids are separated from the rest of the cell by a membrane. Mitochondria and plastids reproduce independently of the rest of the cell.
