The theory of endosymbiosis suggests that chloroplasts and mitochondria were once free-living prokaryotes, that were engulfed by

larger prokaryotic cells. Eventually, this relationship lead to the development of eukaryotic cells with cellular organelles. These organelles included mitochondria, and in some cases, chloroplasts.

The question is incomplete. The rest of the question is : Which of these is not supported by the endosymbiosis theory concerning organelles?

A) contain DNA.

B) contain ribosomes.

C) are capable of living independently.

D) are surrounded by a double membrane.

Answer:

Option C) are capable of living independently  is not supported by the endosymbiosis theory concerning organelles

Explanation:

The endosymbiosis theory proves that chloroplasts and mitochondria were prokaryotic cells before due to many reasons. Some of which are:

  • These organelles have their own separate DNA.
  • The separate DNA present in them is capable of making their own proteins.
  • They are membrane- bound organelles.

However, these organelles can now not live separately outside of the cell. This might be because of the evolutionary changes which  occurred in these cells during the long period of time.

Answer:

C. Are Capable Of Living Independently

Explanation:

The endosymbiosis theory is supported by all BUT one piece of modern-day evidence. That is both organelles are capable of living independently. Although both organelles contain RNA, DNA, and ribosomes, if extracted from eukaryotic cells, they are not capable of living independently.

Please help, these questions on my hw are confusing to me.
Mariana [72]
10. before replication begins, the strands of DNA are separated and used as templates for the new strands. the replication process creates 2 identical double helixes, each has 1 new strand and 1 old one.

11. without dna replication, damaged cells could not be replaced/repaired and cells need dna, cells would become mutated without dna replication.

12. mutations are rare because dna polymerase proofreads the strands but if the process occurred incorrectly and was not corrected by the polymerase, the cell would become mutated and could be really harmful.

hope this helped!

Which answer lists different behavioral responses that some animals use as defense mechanisms?Question 8 options:camouflage, mim
Crank

To answer this we need to analyze each statement

camouflage, mimicry, and stingers: This is meant to escape predation and fend off predators, so this is the correct answer.

hibernation and migration: This is meant for breeding and or food energy storage, to pass hard seasons so is also incorrect.

courtship and breeding behaviors: This is meant for reproduction and to ensure offspring so this is incorrect.

nesting and food gathering: this is a behavior for survival, resource use rather than defense, si this is not correct.
