Answer:  Symbiogenesis

The process responsible for the evolution of mitochondria and chloroplasts in eukaryotes is Symbiogenesis or endosymbiotic theory. 

This theory states<span> that </span>mitochondria and chloroplasts originated from bacteria entering a eukaryotic cell to form a symbiotic relationship.

Among the pieces of evidence supporting symbiogenesis are that new mitochondria and plastids are formed only through binary fission and the striking similarities between bacteria and these organelles<span><span /> (mitochondria and chloroplasts). Similarities include 1) They have their own DNA, which is separate from the DNA found in the nucleus of the cell. and  2) both organelles use their DNA to produce many proteins and enzymes required for their function</span>

What are the two main ways bacteria cause illness?
oee [108]

Answer:

A. By releasing toxins that poison your cells

B. By using your cells to make copies of themselves

Explanation:

Within the body, bacteria can divide (multiply) and kill host cells by disrupting their normal functioning. Moreover, bacteria secrete toxins that are able to destroy host cells' metabolic machinery.  For instance, many bacteria synthesize exoenzymes and interferons that disrupt and destroy host cells. Bacterial toxins can be synthesized internally in order to develop sensitivity through antigenic properties.

SOVA2 [1]

Forests act as habitats for wildlife, acts as carbon sinks, help reduce soil erosion, and influence local and regional climate.

<h3>Forest's ecological services</h3>

These are services that forests provide for the biotic component of the ecosystem.

Forests serve a wide variety of services to humans and animals. They act as sinks for carbon, provide habitats for wildlife, provide foods for humans and animals, protect watersheds and soils, among several other services.

Forests are also able to influence local and regional climate due to their ability to serve as sinks for carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas capable of causing warming.

Forests, however, may not serve recreational purposes, except they are specifically modified to do such.
