Ome species of present day protists contain living organisms within their cytoplasm. Paramecium bursaria are hosts for zoochlore

llae, photosynthetic protists, that live within the cytoplasm of the paramecium. The relationship appears to be symbiotic; the zoochlorellae gain protection and possibly some essential nutrients from the host cytoplasm and the paramecium host has an available food source when its usual food source is depleted. This symbiotic relationship provides support for the theory of endosymbiosis, which states that A) animal-like cells evolved from ancestors that were photosynthetic. B) mitochondria and chloroplasts evolved from small prokaryotes living within larger cells. C) photosynthetic organisms, like today's land plants, evolved from photosynthetic bacteria. D) heterotrophic organisms could not have evolved before the evolution of photosynthetic organisms.

Answer:

Option-B

Explanation:

The theory of endosymbiosis provided the evidence which suggested that the eukaryotic organelles like mitochondria and chloroplast evolved from the smaller prokaryotes which were once independent organisms.

These prokaryotes, when engulfed by larger cells, formed symbiotic relationship among themselves and later evolved into the organelle.

In the given question, since the zoochlorellae contains paramecium bursaria within its cytoplasm which could form the symbiotic relationship. This could act as an evidence of the endosymbiotic theory.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

The oxygen dissociation curve represents the percentage saturation of Hb with oxygen at different partial pressure of oxygen. The different partial pressures gives sigmoid shapes to the curve. When this curves shifts to right, it  indicates  low affinity or binding of oxygen by the Hb. it also indicates the unloading or releases of Oxygen by Hb molecules at condition of low pressure. e,g in the muscles during strenuous exercise.However, when the curve shifts to the left, this indicate high affinity for oxygen, great binding, at high partial pressure of oxygen.e,g in the lungs to take oxygen and releases CO2.

Therefore in this scenario, the statement -. <u>During strenuous exercise, the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve shifts to the right.</u> is correct. because oxygen is needed by the muscles therefore ,oxygen should be less binded by Hb,  decrease affinity and easily unloaded to muscles.

<u>The statement </u>This rightward shift reflects an increase in the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen and favors loading of O2 into hemoglobin in the lungs is wrong.

As explained above the rightwards shift indicated low affinity of Hb for oxygen(unloading)and  favours unloading at the muscles because during strenuous exercise the partial pressure of oxygen is very low(but that of CO2 high) in the muscles which favours low oxygen molecules  binding by Hb, and easy release to respiring cells.
