One of your fellow systematists has asked you to help her group organisms into a valid phylogenetic tree. At present, she has gr

ouped species G, H, and K. Which, if any, additional species would you also need to add to ensure the grouping is monophyletic?

Answer and explanation:

Monophyletic species are the species whose lineage belongs to the common recent phylogenetic ancestor. As mentioned in the question, the girl has 3 species namely G, H, and K. Because there is no other criteria given, we assume that the closeness of alphabets would reflect the closeness of species. Thus, G and H are closer relative than K. Therefore, if she adds <u>I, and J species</u> in the list, all of them will be closer relatives and we can say that they are monophyletic now.

son4ous [18]

The concept presented to explain the origin of eukaryotic cells form a bacterial cell parasitized by another descendant cell is called endosymbiosis.

<h3>What is the endosymbiotic theory?</h3>

The endosymbiotic theory is a well-sustained theory in biology about the origin of eukaryotic cells.

According to this theory, eukaryotic cells emerged by endosymbiosis between primitive eukaryotic cells and bacteria that converted into mitochondria and chloroplast organelles.

The endosymbiotic theory is well sustained in several scientific observations such as the existence of DNA in mitochondria and chloroplasts that is independent of nuclear DNA, the size of ribosomal units, etc.

In conclusion, the concept presented to explain the origin of eukaryotic cells form a bacterial cell parasitized by another descendant cell is called endosymbiosis.
