- Except for the Plantae, what best describes the origin of chloroplasts in most other eukaryotes? Group of answer choices Chloroplasts evolved independently in different lineages Primary endosymbiosis An amoeboid protist engulfed another protist that had chloroplasts in its tissues Mitochondria were converted to perform photosynthetic functions Eukaryotes outside the Plantae don’t have chloroplastsarrow_forwardThe theory of the endosymbiotic origin of mitochondria and chloroplasts was first proposed by the biologist Lynn Which of the following statements provides support for the theory of endosymbiosis? 1. All the genes found in chloroplasts are homologous to genes found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cell. 2. Mitochondria contain their own ribosomes. 3. Proteins need a targeting sequence to be imported into a chloroplast. 4. Mitochondria can generate a proton gradient and harness it to synthesize ATP.

- 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_forwardWhat effect did the events describe endosymbiotic theory have on eukaryotic energy production?arrow_forwardWhat evidence supports the hypothesis that mitochondria preceded plastids in the evolution of Eukaryotes cells?arrow_forward
