Mitochondria have their own DNA. What might that mean about their origin in our cells?

Biology

Answer:

Mitochondria are structures within cells that convert the energy from food into a form that cells can use. Mitochondrial DNA contains 37 genes, all of which are essential for normal mitochondrial function. Thirteen of these genes provide instructions for making enzymes involved in oxidative phosphorylation.

Answer:

They were individual organisms that were assimilated into a larger cell.

Explanation:

It's how simple cells became complex cells. Also, the cell and the mitochondria share a symbiotic relationship: the cell provides a safe space for the mitochondria to live, and the mitochondria provide energy to the cell in the form of ATP.

Density is mass per unit of volume. Which pair of lab instruments would a student use to measure the density of seawater?
9966 [12]
<h3>Answer:  C. a balance and a beaker</h3>

Explanation:

A balance would be used to measure the weight, which in turn effectively measures the mass (more or less). Imagine that we have a brick that we know is 1 pound. If we have an object that needs 5 bricks on one side to balance it out, then we know the object is 5 pounds.

The beaker is used to measure the volume. It's basically a measuring cup that you would find in the kitchen.

To get the density, you divide the mass over volume.

For example, if you have a material that has a mass of 100 grams and it's volume is 20 cm^3, then its density is 100/20 = 5 grams per cm^3.

How did flowers and fruits contribute to angiosperms becoming dominant land plants on earth?
Ainat [17]

Answer: The study, by Dr. Tim Brodribb and Dr. Taylor Field of the University of Tasmania and University of Tennessee, used plant physiology to reveal how flowering plants, including crops, were able to dominate land by evolving more efficient hydraulics, or 'leaf plumbing', to increase rates of photosynthesis.

Explanation: The reason for the success of this evolutionary step is that under relatively low atmospheric C02 conditions, like those existing at present, water transport efficiency and photosynthetic performance are tightly linked. Therefore adaptations that increase water transport will enhance maximum photosynthesis, exerting substantial evolutionary leverage over competing species.

The evolution of dense leaf venation in flowering plants, around 140-100 million years ago, was an event with profound significance for the continued evolution of flowering plants. This step provided a 'cretaceous productivity stimulus package' which reverberated across the biosphere and led to these plants playing the fundamental role in the biological and atmospheric functions of the earth.
