ENDOSYMBIOTIC THEORY is the evolution theory that includes a larger and one smaller cell. The larger cell act as a host and the smaller cell is called the endosymbiont that is engulfed by the host cell. The larger cell referred to eukaryotic cell and the smaller cell represent prokaryotic cell.
BIOMOLECULE, also called biological molecule, any of numerous substances that are produced by cells and living organisms. Biomolecules have a wide range of sizes and structures and perform a vast array of functions. The four major types of biomolecules are carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, and proteins.
QUESTION:
• How this theory (ENDOSYMBIOTIC THEORY) can be applies to this course subject (BIOMOLECULES)?
Note: Make a connection how this theory can be applied in the course subject.
