<span>Every cell contains certain structures that perform specialized functions for the cell. What are these structures called?
</span>b. organelles
Answer:
Endosymbiont theory was proposed by Lynn Margulis in 1967 which suggested the origin of Chloroplast and mitochondria in eukaryotic cells.
The theory suggested that chloroplast and mitochondria organelle originated by engulfing the cyanobacteria and proteobacteria by other prokaryotic bacteria.
This shows that Prokaryotes exhibit the following characters:
1. These were the first organisms on Earth
2. Lack membrane-bounded
3. Aerobic bacteria are these types of cells
Eukaryotes exhibit:
1. Have mitochondria
2. Includes organisms that carry out aerobic respiration
3. Can be a multicellular organism
4. Includes organisms that are photosynthetic
5. Might have chloroplasts
Answer:
(2) exchange food, oxygen, and waste between
mother and fetus
Explanation:
In most mammals like humans, the fetus produced as a result of the fertilization of the sperm and egg, develops in the uterus or womb of the female. However, this developing fetus cannot yet fend for what it requires for survival and is still dependent on the mother e.g nutrients, oxygen etc. How do this substances get to the fetus? Here comes the role of the PLACENTA.
Placenta is an organ in the uterus that serves as a connection between the mother and the fetus in her womb. The placenta enables the mother to pass digested nutrients to the fetus and exchange gases (oxygen and Carbondioxide) between them via the umbilical cord. The placenta also enables the mother remove waste produced by the fetus into her bloodstream.
