I got it wrong on connexus so i hope you dont make the same mistake i did ;-;
Answer: Many pathogenic fungi are parasitic in humans and are known to cause diseases of humans and other animals. In humans, parasitic fungi most commonly enter the body through a wound in the epidermis (skin). Such wounds may be insect punctures or accidentally inflicted scratches, cuts, or bruises. One example of a fungus that causes disease in humans is Claviceps purpurea, the cause of ergotism (also known as St. Anthony’s fire), a disease that was prevalent in northern Europe in the Middle Ages, particularly in regions of high rye-bread consumption. The wind carries the fungal spores of ergot to the flowers of the rye, where the spores germinate, infect and destroy the ovaries of the plant, and replace them with masses of microscopic threads cemented together into a hard fungal structure shaped like a rye kernel but considerably larger and darker. This structure, called an ergot, contains a number of poisonous organic compounds called alkaloids. A mature head of rye may carry several ergots in addition to noninfected kernels. When the grain is harvested, much of the ergot falls to the ground, but some remains on the plants and is mixed with the grain. Although modern grain-cleaning and milling methods have practically eliminated the disease, the contaminated flour may end up in bread and other food products if the ergot is not removed before milling. In addition, the ergot that falls to the ground may be consumed by cattle turned out to graze in rye fields after harvest. Cattle that consume enough ergot may suffer abortion of fetuses or death. In the spring, when the rye is in bloom, the ergot remaining on the ground produces tiny, black, mushroom-shaped bodies that expel large numbers of spores, thus starting a new series of infections.
Both binary fission and Mitosis are form of a asexual reproduction of cells binary fission is a method of prokaryotes used to multiply and product of mitosis one cell with two indentical nuclei. Mitosis is followed by cytokinesis in which the cells splits and identical cells are formed
The question is incomplete. The rest of the question is : Which of these is not supported by the endosymbiosis theory concerning organelles?
A) contain DNA.
B) contain ribosomes.
C) are capable of living independently.
D) are surrounded by a double membrane.
Answer:
Option C) are capable of living independently is not supported by the endosymbiosis theory concerning organelles
Explanation:
The endosymbiosis theory proves that chloroplasts and mitochondria were prokaryotic cells before due to many reasons. Some of which are:
- These organelles have their own separate DNA.
- The separate DNA present in them is capable of making their own proteins.
- They are membrane- bound organelles.
However, these organelles can now not live separately outside of the cell. This might be because of the evolutionary changes which occurred in these cells during the long period of time.
