stira [4]3 years ago
7 0

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.

Factors that affect rate of erosion
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

farm management, rainfall, climate, soil type, soil cover, landscape, type of wave, crops, rock strength and position of coast.

Explanation:

Erosion can be defined as a geological process which typically involves the wearing out of earthen (soil) materials and the transportation of these materials by natural forces like water, wind, etc. Soil erosion is greatest when the soil is steep.

The steepness of a body such as river or stream refers to the downward slope or gradient of the body of water.

Generally, the steepness of a body affects the rate at which other materials would flow or move around. Thus, the steeper a river or stream, the greater would be its rate of erosion.

Other factors that affect the rate of erosion in an area include the following; farm management, rainfall, climate, soil type, soil cover, landscape, type of wave, crops, rock strength and position of coast.
