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.
