Question

Endosymbiont theory explains some of the differences and similarities between prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Categorize the following statements as relating to prokaryotes or eukaryotes by dragging and dropping the labels below. Some labels might be used more than once.
a.Prokaryotes
i.Lack membrane-bounded
ii.These were the first organisms on Earth
iii.Includes organisms that are photosynthetic
iv.Aerobic bacteria are these types of cellsv.Includes organisms that carry out aerobic respiration
b.Eukaryotes
i.Have mitochondria ii.Might have chloroplastsiii.Includes organisms that are photosyntheticiv.Includes organisms that carry out aerobic respirationv.Cen be a multicellular organism

Answer 1

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
