Chapter 17.3, Problem 1BC
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The manner in which mitochondria and chloroplast originated in eukaryotic cells through evolution.
Introduction:
The cells which have defined nucleus and cell organelles are known as eukaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells have semiautonomous cell organelles known as mitochondria and chloroplast. They are known as semiautonomous because they are still dependent on the other parts of cells in spite of having the capability to grow and divide.

MAKE CONNECTIONS The bacterium Wolbachia is asymbiont that lives in mosquito cells and spreads rapidlythrough mosquito populations. Wolbachia can make mosquitoes resistant to infection by Plasmodium; researchersare seeking a strain that confers resistance and does notharm mosquitoes. Compare evolutionary changes thatcould occur if malaria control is attempted using such aWolbachia strain versus using insecticides to kill mosquitoes. (Review Figure 28.16 and Concept 23.4.)
Briefly describe what endosymbiotic theory is. Describe a few ways in which endosymbiotic theory has changed the way scientists think about the ancestral distinctions among the three domains.
Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion
What two species of bacteria evolved into mitochondria and plastids? What are the basics of endosymbiotic theory?

- Lab 10: Kingdom Animalia Introduction Animals all share some characteristics: 1) Multicellular 2) Heterotrophic 3) Their cells have no cell wall 4) At some time in their life they are motile. There are many phyla within the animal Kingdom, and in this activity, you will explore these phyla by building a dichotomous key that will allow you to consider almost any animal and determine which phylum it belongs to. Part 1: Organizing information for the dichotomous key 1) List the 9 animal phyla of macroscopic (visible) animals: Porifera, Cnidaria, Platyhelminthes, Nemotoda, Annelida, Arthropoda, Mollusca, Echinodermata, and Chordata. 2) Use on-line or library resources of your choice, to gather information about these 9 phyla. a. Start by finding two example species per phylum to help tie into your previous knowledge about animal types. Write down these examples. b. Make a list of characteristics that you could use that would help you tell these 9 phyla apart. The final goal is to build a…arrow_forwardPlease answer fast 1.You want to construct a phylogeny of the classes found within Phylum Arthropoda, classes which shared ancestry hundreds of millions of years ago.

- Define the endosymbiotic theory. Explain how mitochondria and chloroplasts evolved by endosymbiosis. Explain 4 pieces of evidence for the Endosymbiotic Theory.arrow_forward5)Which of the following observations constitutes evidence that mitochondria evolved before chloroplasts? Mitochondria are aerobic. Chloroplasts are photosynthetic. Aerobic bacteria evolved before photosynthetic bacteria (cyanobacteria). Some protists have separately evolved their own plastids (chloroplast-like structures) through endosymbiosis of cyanobacteria, or even through endosymbiosis of photosynthetic protists. All Eukaryotes have mitochondria; only a subset of Eukaryotes have chloroplasts.arrow_forward
