Which statements are part of the theory of endosymbiosis? Select all that apply. Early prokaryotes were able to carry out aerobi

c respiration and were engulfed by eukaryotic cells. The first cells that appeared on Earth were eukaryotic and were engulfed by prokaryotic cells. Early anaerobic prokaryotes engulfed aerobic prokaryotes, which evolved into mitochondria. Some early eukaryotic cells engulfed photosynthetic prokaryotes, which evolved into chloroplasts.

Early anaerobic prokaryotes engulfed aerobic prokaryotes, which evolved into mitochondria.

The endosymbiotic theory is used to explain the evolution of eukarytotic cells. They evolved from a predatory relatioship between anaerobic protists and aerobic prokaryotes that turned symbiotic.

Explanation:

It is believed that the very first cells utilized glycolysis for cellular respiration to provide energy for the cellular activities. Over time some cells evolved mechanisms to harness the energy of the sun. These cells changed the composition of the atmosphere because they took up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and evolved oxygen resulting to what is described as the Great Oxygenation Event. Some cells evolved aerobic respiration with most anaerobes perishing due to the oxidative capacity of oxygen. These aerobic cells (the prokaryotes) were more efficient in producing energy than anaerobes.

During these times before evolution of autotrophs cells, cells were mainly heterotrophs meaning they engulfed other cells for ‘food’. These protists engulfed the prokaryotes that were more efficient in harnessing oxygen to create more energy. The prokaryotes utilized the Citric cycle than is highly effective in generating more energy than glycolysis. Over time this relationship shifted from predation to mutualistic relationship.

This relationship created the eukaryotic cells with the mitochondria being the aerobic prokaryotes that were engulfed by anaerobic protists.

How does genotypic variation occur?

Variations in a genotype could be major or minor. It really depends on the degree of change. A genotype changes due to errors mutations. Some are endogenous, occuring with the organismm often during meiosis that causes changes in a genotype.

Answer:

According to the diagram and the interaction of the structures to express information in the cell, it is true that:

- Molecule B can be used to produce molecule A.

- Molecule A can be used to produce molecule C.

Explanation:

Molecule A is a double stranded DNA, molecule B is a strand of RNA and molecule C is an amino acid encoded by a codon.

The DNA is capable of splitting and from one strand producing the messenger RNA, in the process of transcription.

Messenger RNA contains a sequence of bases, and the set of 3 bases of RNA form a triplet or codon. A specific amino acid can be formed from a codon. This process is called translation.

The way in which molecules A, B and C interact is through the processes of transcription and translation, making it possible to use genetic information for protein synthesis.

The other options are not possible because:

  • <em>Only DNA can replicate, RNA needs the transcription to be synthesized. </em>
  • <em>Molecule B and C do not interact so that the amino acids are together, but this depends on the sequence of bases in the RNA.</em>
