Describe one observation that supports the theory that
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

The presence of organelle DNA in mitochondria and chloroplast supports the  theory that mitochondria and chloroplast originated as independent prokaryotic organism.

Explanation:

  • The more well documented and generally accepted theory for the origin of eukaryotic organelles is Endosymbiotic Theory. (Margulis 1970).
  • Recent evidences justify that organelles have originated from the endosymbiotic association  of ingested aerobic and and photosynthetic prokaryote, the precursors of mitochondria and chloroplast  respectively.
  • Molecular data have played an important role in supporting the xenogenous origin rather than autogenous origin of organelles.
  • The idea of independent existence of mitochondria and chloroplast are: they are replicators; they carry genetic information; they have protein synthesising machinery; they have ribosome of prokaryotic type.
  • The prokaryotic or bacterial origin of mitochondria and chloroplast is supported by the fact like their DNA is simple ,closed and circular with single point of origin; DNA controls the synthesis of  their rRNA and tRNA etc.; They have their own ribosome; antibiotic specificity.

Aleks [24]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

Based on the punnets square (assuming that eye color is a one gene trait in this question) There is a 75% chance they would have a child with brown eyes and a 25% chance that the child would have blue if the father is heterozygous. Theoretically the father could be heterozygous and still have 11 brown eyed kids. This just means that the Dad always passed down his dominant gene.
