The endosymbiotic theory pertains to which organelle within eukaryotes because of
the presence of 70S ribosomes, circular DNA, and the replication of this organelle
independent from mitosis?
O 1) nucleus
O 2) lysosomes.
O 3) golgi
4) endoplasmic reticulum
5:
O 5) mitochondria
Under the endosymbiotic theory for the origin of the eukaryotic cell. The ancestor of mitochondria and chloroplasts original became part of mutualism with a larger host cell. Which of the following best explains this mutualism?
A) The mitochondria and chloroplasts provided specialized reproduction as part of the proto-germ line while the larger host cell provided energy for growth and reproduction.
B) The mitochondria and chloroplasts provided gene products that could be used by the larger host cell for improved parasitization.
C) The mitochondria and chloroplasts provided molecular energy in return for protection by the larger host cell.
D) The mitochondria and chloroplasts produce toxins that the larger cell utilized to defend itself from other cells mutually increasing the defense of all those involved.
a) Describe some characteristics and differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.b) How do the three domains of life differ from one another?c) Two of the organelles in eukaryotes, the mitochondrion and the chloroplast are believed to haveoriginated through a process of symbiosis. Discuss some of the theories of the origins ofmitochondria and chloroplasts

How does the presecence of different types of ribosomes inside a eukaryotic cell strengthen the endosymbiotic theory? How does chloroplasts and mitochondria found within a cell have two membranes? How does the emergence of endosymbotic theory change the way humans view microorganisms? Will people be comfortable imaginning that the life functions of pants and animals, including their own, are actually dependent on the coexistence of many different microscopic pieces?arrow_forwardAccording to the endosymbiotic theory, why did the primitive eukaryotic cell fail to digest the non-photosynthetic prokaryote that later became an energy-producing organelle? Because the engulfed cell provided the host cell with carbon dioxide. Because the host cell was able to survive anaerobic conditions with the engulfed cell alive. Because the engulfed cell allowed the host cell to metabolize glucose. Because the engulfed cell provided the host cell with adenosine triphosphate (ATP).arrow_forward1) Discuss several characteristics of mitochondria and chloroplasts that lend evidence to the endosymbiotic theory. As stated in the text, this theory may explain the origin of these organelles. Can this theory explain the origin of the ER?arrow_forward
- In the course of evolution of the eukaryotic cell, the ability to store newly synthesized molecules is associated with: a) the nucleus of prokaryotes, b) vesicles that contain enzymes that perform dehydration synthesis, c) lysosomes, d) the nucleoid area of the cytoplasm. e) proteins produced outside of the Endoplasmic reticulum.arrow_forwardFigure 23.5 What evidence is there that mitochondria were incorporated into the ancestral eukaryotic cell before chloroplasts?arrow_forwardIf mitochondria originated as proteobacteria and chloroplasts are descended from cyanobacteria, where does the rest of the eukaryotic cell come from?arrow_forward
- What are mitochondria? What is their structure, function, and where did they come from during evolution?arrow_forward1. Why was the great oxygenation event important for mitochondrial development? a) In your own words, define symbiotic. 2. Chloroplasts and mitochondria both contain a circular DNA chromosome, and ribosomes. Why does this evidence support the theory of endosymbiosis as the mechanism for the origin of eukaryotic cells? a) Today, could mitochondria live independently of their eukaryotic cell host? Give two pieces of evidence to support your answer.arrow_forwardThe membrane structure that eventually evolved into the double nuclear membrane of the eukaryotes first appears in the: A) Chemical evolution, B) Prokaryotes, C) Eukaryotes, D) the protocell, E) Plants.arrow_forward
- Based on the presence of mitochondria and chloroplast within eukaryotic cells, what organelle do you think originated within eukaryotic cells first: mitochondria or chloroplast? Why?arrow_forwardWhat are the two organelles in eukaryotes that originated from separate endosymbiotic events from bacteria, contain their own DNA, and are semi-autonomous?arrow_forwardWhat are the main advantages of the presence of organelles in eukaryotic cells?arrow_forward
