Mitochondria contain their own genome and duplicate by fission. even so,Mitochondria cannot function for long when isolated from the rest of the cell because they are endosymbionts.

Organelles called mitochondria are focused on cellular respiration, which is how a cell gets its energy. Mitochondria and other organelles are found only in eukaryotic cells; they are absent in prokaryotes.

Endosymbiosis, in which one cell was swallowed by another and eventually started to function within it, is the theory put forth by scientists as to how mitochondria evolved. In exchange for other functions of metabolism, mitochondria produce energy in a symbiotic relationship with cells. Thus, mitochondria are dependent on their host cell for survival.

That is true. Each hemisphere of the brain specializes in assisting various functions of the body.

The vertebrate cerebrum (brain) is formed by two cerebral hemispheres that are separated by a groove, the longitudinal fissure. The brain can thus be described as being divided into left and right cerebral hemispheres.

2. An adaptive advantage of having a three-chambered heart, as found in amphibians, over the two-chambered heart of fish is that
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

fully oxygenated blood returning to the amphibian heart can undergo additional pumping to reach higher pressures.

Explanation:

Fishes have a two-chambered heart with one atrium and one ventricle. The blood is pumped from the atrium into the ventricle. Ventricle pumps blood into a single circuit of blood vessels. Blood is oxygenated as it passes through capillaries in the gills. As blood circulates through the gill capillaries, it has low blood pressure and therefore, is delivered very slowly to the other organs.  

The amphibian heart has two atria and one ventricle. A sinus venosus collects oxygen-poor blood and pumps it into the right atrium. Oxygenated blood from the lungs passes directly into the left atrium. The left atrium pumps the oxygen-rich blood into the arteries that conduct it to the various tissues of the body. Therefore, a three-chambered heart in reptiles allows the delivery of oxygenated blood with high blood pressure.

From what I can understand from this, plants go toward the sun b/c it wants more sunlight. This is apparent when you just let a tiny piece of sunlight to the plant. The plant will grow toward the sunlight so that it can get more.
