horsena [70]

Answer:

a.Many mitochondrial genes resemble proteobacteria genes, while the genes in the chloroplast resemble genes found in some photosynthetic bacteria.

c.Mitochondria and chloroplasts both have their own circular DNA and 70S ribosomes that are similar to those found in bacteria.

d.Mitochondria and chloroplasts replicate by a process similar to mitosis.

Explanation:

Endosymbiotic theory states that mitochondria and chloroplast which are organelles of eukaryotic cells were once independently living micro-organisms but with due course of time eukaryotic cells engulfed them and they become an integral part of these eukaryotic cells.

The resemblance between mitochondrial genes with those of proteobacteria and chloroplast genes with photosynthetic bacteria strongly support endosymbiotic theory. Apart from this, the presence of their own DNA that too circular just like prokaryotic microbes and 70 S ribosomes also support this theory. Also just like prokaryotic cells, before cell division mitochondria and chloroplasts undergo replication by means of a process known as binary fission.

after the brain receives information from the body's sensory receptors, what is the next step in responding to this information?
Bumek [7]

The sensory receptors refer to the portions of the nervous system, which sense variations in the external or internal surroundings. The sensory input can be in various forms, comprising taste, pressure, light, sound, pH of blood, or levels of hormones, which are transformed into a signal and are transmitted to the brain or spinal cord.  

In the sensory centers of the brain, the barrage of information is integrated and a response is produced. The response, that is, a motor output refers to a signal conducted towards organs via motor neurons, which then transforms the signal into some kind of action, like changes in heart rate, movement, discharge of hormones, and others.
