The endosymbiont theory explains the origin of the eukaryotic cell organelles where the cells were engulfed but not digested by the larger prokaryotic cells and in the process developed into the chloroplast, mitochondria and other organelles.
(A) The theory was trying to explain the evolutionary origin of the various cell organelles and,
also explains the dependence of cells on one another.
(B) The evidences that supported the Endosymbiotic theory includes;
-The photosynthetic bacteria; This bacteria utilize the sun's energy to make energy hence the oxygen released from the process accumulated in the atmosphere thereby leading to the death of the anaerobic cells.
-Organelles have their own DNA and divide independently, therefore Margulis predicted that if the organelles were really prokaryotic symbionts, then they would have their own DNA.
- The study of fossils showed the aerobic cells in it, therefore the cells could use the toxic oxygen and convert it into ATP(energy) and water. Organisms that could thrive in aerobic environments were now best suited to the environment.
11 is b but I don’t know the rest sorry
Considering the following statements;
A. It can exist without a constant source of energy input
B. It must contain consumers but can exist without producers.
C. It involves interactions between biotic and abiotic factors.
D. It can exist on land, but it cannot exist in lakes, rivers, or oceans.
The correct statement is C. that an ecosystem involves interactions between biotic and abiotic factors.
Biotic factors are the living things in an ecosytem, they include plants, animals, bacteria, fungi and others. Abiotic factors on the other hand, are the non-living factors in an ecosystem, they include water and air, sunlight, the amount precipitation in an ecosystem is also an example of abiotic factor. The two types of factors are crucial for an ecosystem to exist and thrive.
