With the endosymbiotic hypothesis in mind, what structure within modern-day chloroplasts is likely derived from the cytoplasm of

The chloroplasts had inner membrane

Explanation:

The primitive photoautotrophs utilized hydrogen sulphide as the electron donor to perform photosynthesis for energy production.  

Later upon understanding the endosymbiotic relationship of cyanobacteria which resided in the mitochondria of a eukaryotic host cell, the use of chloroplasts for photosynthesis was understood.  

Generations after generations led to the development of chloroplasts by the cyanobacteria due to this symbiotic relationships which developed into the chloroplasts.

The unique presence of the inner membrane and its components like the stroma, thyllakoids helped the organism to utilize water as the electron donor for photosynthesis like the present day eukaryotes. This is the main reason why cyanobacteria is considered as the ancestor for eukaryotes.

Epithelial cells are most likely to be found where in your body?
sattari [20]

Answer:

Epithelial cells also line the inside of your throat, intestines, blood vessels, and all your organs. They are a barrier between the inside and outside of your body and are often the first place that is attacked by viruses as they begin their invasion deeper into the body.

Explanation:

Epithelial tissue covers the outside of the body and lines organs, vessels (blood and lymph), and cavities. Epithelial cells form the thin layer of cells known as the endothelium, which is contiguous with the inner tissue lining of organs such as the brain, lungs, skin, and heart.

Mendel's law of segregation predicts the following specific phenotypic ratios among the F, and Fa progeny from crosses between t
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

C. Fi 1:0, F2 3:1

Explanation:

Firstly, Mendel's law of segregation states that the alleles of a gene will randomly separate into gametes during gamete formation. In this case involving a single trait, hence, a single gene. Mendel crossed two purebreeding plants i.e. homozygous plants that produced different phenotypes for the same gene. He obtained his offsprings which he called F1 offsprings. He realized that all the F1 offsprings expressed only one phenotype. For example, when he crossed homozygous tall (TT) and short (tt) plants, he got F1 offsprings that were all tall.

He then self-crossed these F1 offsprings to produce a F2 offsprings that had a phenotypic ratio of 3:1 i.e. 3tall, 1short plant. He concluded that the alleles of the single gene had segregated into the gametes but one allele was capable of masking the expression of another, as seen in the heterozygous F1 offsprings that were all tall (Tt).

Hence, he obtained a 1:O ratio for his F1 offsprings then a 3:1 ratio for his F2 offsprings.
