The endosymbiotic theory stated
that the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells are actually prokaryotic bacteria
which were once engulfed by prehistoric eukaryotic cells as a result of
evolution.
Therefore to answer this
question, here are some characteristics:
1 Both mitochondria and prokaryotic cells contain their own
DNA.
2 Neither of the two have
true nuclei, but they do have a space in which their DNA is enclosed.
3 Mitochondria and prokaryotic cells have similar
transcriptional machinery, which means that they have the same process of
making RNA from DNA.
<span>4 Mitochondria
contain their own genome, and the formation of their genome in most organisms
is circular similar to prokaryotes.</span>
Answer:
The correct answer is A)
To limit the potential flooding damage that could result if an earthquake happens and the dam spills over
Explanation:
According to the text, seismic risks are very high for dams in that region. One of the reasons is that some of the dams were built many years ago when civil engineers didn't have information about what an earthquake could do to dams.
Citing an occurrence that happened in 1899 as an example where thousands of people were killed as a result of a failed dam, it is feared that should same reoccur, the loss may be more because about 300,000 people occupy the flood zone along the Alameda Creek below the dam.

mRNA or Messenger RNA
mRNA transcribes the genetic code from DNA into a form that can be read and used to make proteins. mRNA carries genetic information from the nucleus to the cytoplasm of a cell.<span>rRNA or Ribosomal RNA
rRNA is located in the cytoplasm of a cell, where ribosomes are found. rRNA directs the translation of mRNA into proteins.</span><span>tRNA or Transfer RNA
Like rRNA, tRNA is located in the cellular cytoplasm and is involved in protein synthesis. Transfer RNA brings or transfers amino acids to the ribosome that correspond to each three-nucleotide codon of rRNA. The amino acids then can be joined together and processed to make polypeptides and proteins</span>
