Answer: a. weathering breaks rocks into minerals and plants die and decay.

The process of soil formation is called as pedogenesis. This process initiates with the weathering of rocks. Weathering is a process in which the rock is broken down into smaller soil particles. Wind, water and chemicals are potent weathering agents. The fine grains of soil are mixed with the organic matter. The organic matter produces as a result of dead animal and plant waste being decayed by the microorganisms in the soil. The organic matter increases the fertility of the soil.

Therefore,a. weathering breaks rocks into minerals and plants die and decay must occur to form soil.

According to the theory of endosymbiosis How did cells acquirenhow did cells acquire chloroplast
stira [4]

According to endosymbiotic theory, the chloroplast evolved as a result of engulfment and assimilation of a Cyanobacteria by an eukaryotic cell.

Explanation:

  • Endosymbiotic theory supports the view that ceratain organelles of the eukaryotic cell evolved as a result of engulfment of single celled organism.
  • Evidences  that support this theory is the presence of organellar DNA.
  • It is assumed that Mitochondria evolved as a result of engulfment and assimilation of an aerobic prokaryote while Chloroplast evolved due to engulfment and assimilation of a photosythetic prokaryote by an Eukaryote.
  • After the engulfment ,these organisms however escaped the phagocytosis and began to benefit the eukaryotic Host.
  • Soon it lost many of its Genes to the eukaryotic nucleus and became dependent on the Host.
  • Thus a symbiotic association was established between the prokaryote and the host.Giving rise to cell organelles.
