Mitochondria are thought to be the descendants of certain alpha proteobacteria. They are, however, no longer able to lead indepe
ndent lives because most genes originally present on their chromosome have moved to the nuclear genome. Which phenomenon accounts for the movement of these genes? A) plasmolysis
B) conjugation
C) translation
D) endocytosis
E) horizontal gene transfer
we know here that phenomenon account for movement of these genes is horizontal gene transfer because we know Horizontal gene transfer are primary mechanism for spreading of antibiotic resistance in the bacteria
and
in many mechanism some are
(1) transformation
(2) transduction
(3) Gene transfer agents
and that Gene transfer agent is virus and it like element encode by host that is occur in alpha proteobacteria
and
we know that implant of one to other plant can transfer chloroplasts , mitochondrial and entire cell nucleus contain the genome to the potential makes new species
as that we can say here correct option is E) horizontal gene transfer
Gene directs the synthesis of a cellular component through what is called gene expression.
During gene expression, information from the DNA is used to synthesis proteins, through the process of transcription followed by translation.
Transcription is the process that involves use of information carried by DNA to generate messenger RNA, in the nucleus of a cell. Then translation which uses the information carried by the mRNA to generate proteins in the organelles known as ribosomes.
