The double membrane. It's theorized that chloroplasts used to be their own single-celled organism in the environment (and therefore with its own membrane). Then, the theory states, a larger cell took in the chloroplast by endocytosis, which involves surrounding the chloroplast in the large cell's own membrane. The chloroplast would then have two membranes surrounding it. This is similar to the thinking for mitochondria becoming an organelle as well. Hope this helps! :)

Species with homologous structures most likely:
nikitadnepr [17]

Species with more likely homologous structures share a common ancestor.

  • D. share a common ancestor.

<h3>What are example homologous structures?</h3>

The most correct definition for homology would be: They are structures of individuals, of different species or not, that were inherited from a common ancestor. The human arm is homologous to the horse's front leg. The bat's wing is homologous to the whale fin.

With this information, we can conclude that homologous  have same embryological origin of structures from different organisms, and these structures may or may not have the same function

Which objects allow humans to access groundwater? Check all that apply.
Masja [62]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The objects that allow humans to access ground water are:</u>

  • <u>A spring</u>
  • <u>a well drilled into an aquifer </u>
  • <u>a well drilled below the water table</u>
<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Access to ground water can be gained if we dig a well or use any source that can provide us an access below the water table. A water table is the level below which the ground is saturated with water. So above the saturation level we cannot gain access to water therefore we must go below it. A spring springs from ground below water table and the same thing occurs for well or an aquifer if it is below the water table..

Analyze and evaluate the formation of organic carbon molecules in c4 plants.
Setler [38]

In C4 plants, photosynthesis is compartmentalized into two; light-dependent stage and  light independent stage. The light-dependent stage occurs in the mesophyll cells of the leaf. Here, CO2 is fixed into oxaloacetate by PEP carboxylase enzyme. The oxaloacetate is then converted to malate that is then transported to bundle-sheath cells (around the leaf veins). The CO2 is then released from the malate and the gas molecule is subsequently fixed by RuBiSCO like in C3 plants. The biggest advantage of C4 photosytheis is that the wasteful process of photorespiration is greatly reduced.

Why is a cell considered the basic unit of life?
vekshin1

Answer:

Cells are considered the basic units of life in part because they come in discrete and easily recognizable packages. That's because all cells are surrounded by a structure called the cell membrane — which, much like the walls of a house, serves as a clear boundary between the cell's internal and external environments.

What challenges do hydrostatic pressure creates for marine scientists
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

The oceans are present on the 70 percent of the world but only 5 percent of the total oceans are explored yet.

There are many reasons of this problem but the most important is the hydrostatic pressure.

Hydrostatic pressure can be described as the pressure or weight exerted by the water on the object.

With every increase in 10 meters the pressure increase by 6.47kg (14.27lbs) each square inch of surface.

Due to extreme pressure, oxygen level in the cells of body fluctuates and person becomes unstable and can become unconscious.
