Why do mitochondria and chloroplasts have relatively small genomes?

Biology
1 answer:
Komok [63]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

B) Over time, much of their nucleic acid has migrated to the host cell nucleus

Explanation:

The origin of chloroplasts and mitochondria is explained via endosymbiosis theory: they  originated as prokarytoic symbionts. The host cell acquired genetic information from them and “took it up” by lateral gene transfer. Those genes (now located in the eukaryotic cell nucleus-nuclear genome) encode the great majority of chloroplast and mitochondrial proteins, as well as many proteins of the nucleus and cytosol.  

Yet ,chloroplasts and mitochondria retained some of the genes in their genomes.

The graph shows the changing levels of hormones during menstruation and ovulation. Which hormone has the most influence on a saf
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Ans. (C).Progesterone promotes fertility because its levels rise during ovulation and immediately after.

Progesterone is a female sex-hormone, produced in the ovaries right after ovulation and its level rise immediately after ovulation (as shown in graph). A thick, and proper uterine lining is important for the implantation of zygote in the uterine wall.

Progesterone has the most influence on a secure pregnancy as it promotes the thickening and maintenance of uterine lining. Low levels of progesterone makes it difficult to get pregnant as zygote cannot implant properly.
