In the early 1700s, Linnaeus came up with a new system of classification of living things that eventually replaced the one that

had been used since Aristotle developed it in ancient Greece about 2000 years earlier. Why was a change necessary? A new system was needed to include the new species that had evolved, since the original classification system was developed. So many new species were being discovered, it was impossible to arrange them all in a hierarchy based on relative complexity of species. A system based on differences in physical characteristics was no longer sufficient to describe all that was known about living things. There was no way in Aristotle's system to classify the microscopic organisms discovered after the development of the microscope.

Many biological systems classify the organism based on the cells, reproduction, simplicity and complexity. The discovery of the new species and arrangement based on the hierarchy led to the change.

<h3>What was the new classification system?</h3>

Aristotle gave the most primitive biological hierarchical classification system that was replaced by the system of the Linnaeus. He gave the classification based on the taxonomy groups.

With time many new organisms and species were discovered that did not fit in Aristotle's classification system. Hence, with time new systems were established to classify the organism based on many new parameters.

Therefore, option A. new system was established to classify the new organism discovered.

Difference between osmosis, diffusion and plasmolysis
pickupchik [31]
Osmosis is the movement of water particles from an area of high concentration of water particles to an area of low concentration of water particles across a semi permeable membrane

Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration of particles to an area of low concentration of particles across a partially permeable membrane

Plasmolysis is the shrinking of the cytoplasm if a plant cell in response to diffusion of water out of the cell and into a high salt concentration solution as the cell membrane would pull away from the cell wall

Endosymbiotic theory is supported by similarities between chloroplasts and * Cyanobacteria Viruses Yeasts None of the above
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Endosymbiotic theory is supported by similarities between chloroplasts and * Cyanobacteria.

Explanation:

The endosymbiotic theory proposes that mitochondria and chloroplasts were once free-living bacteria that were phagocytized by another cell but not digested. These bacteria got to adapt to their host, and both cells became interdependent.  

Both organelles have many similarities with other free-living bacteria. Chloroplasts probably derivate from cyanobacteria because both cells absorb sunlight, produce ATP, and organic molecules. And mitochondria derivate from rickettsias because they produce ATP in the same way by using the Krebs Cycle and Oxidative Phosphorylation.

From the phagocytosis moment, these two cells became so dependant on each other, they could not survive without the other one.  

Chloroplasts and mitochondria share some traits with free-living bacteria, that support the theory.  

• Both organelles present their genetic material. This DNI is independent of the cells´ DNA, is bi-catenary and circular, identical to the bacterial DNA, and very different from the one of the eukaryotic cells.

• Both organelles divide by binary fission, not by mitosis, and can synthesize their ribosomes and organelles.    

• Both organelles present a double membrane, a characteristic that reinforces the idea of being phagocyted. The internal membrane looks identical to the bacterial membrane, while the external membrane looks like the eukaryotic one.  

In fact, in this internal membrane are placed the energy centers, just as it occurs in bacterias membrane.  

• Finally, the sizes of the organelles are similar to the size of some procaryotes
