Chapter 28, Problem 2TYU

Biologists think that endosymbiosis gave rise to mitochondria before plastids partly because

(A) the products of photosynthesis could not be metabolized without mitochondrial enzymes.

(B) all eukaryotes have mitochondria (or their remnants), whereas many eukaryotes do not have plastids.

(C) mitochondrial DNA is less similar to prokaryotic DNA than is plastid DNA.

(D) without mitochondrial CO2 production, photosynthesis could not occur.

The concept of endosymbiosis as applied to chloroplast and mitochondria found in eukaryotes: a) is based on evidence that Chloroplasts and Mitochondria were originally prokaryotes, b) changes present day animals into plants, c)  explains how chemical evolution caused the appearance of life, d) allowed chloroplasts to carry out aerobic metabolism, e) all are true.
According to the endosymbiotic theory of the origin of eukaryotic cells, how did chloroplasts originate?   -by tertiary endosymbiosis -through secondary endosymbiosis -from the nuclear envelope folding outward and forming mitochondrial membranes -from infoldings of the plasma membrane, coupled with mutations of genes for oxygen-using metabolism -through primary endosymbiosis
Molecular fossils further indicate the presence of ciliates and dinoflagellates in the emerging eukaryotic world and show that algae were expanding to become major photosynthesizers in the oceans. How can we explain this diversification?
