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.

Students have asked these similar questions
Plastids that are surrounded by more than twomembranes are evidence of(A) evolution from mitochondria.(B) fusion of plastids.(C) origin of the plastids from archaea.(D) secondary endosymbiosis.
1. Why was the great oxygenation event important for mitochondrial development? a) In your own words, define symbiotic. 2. Chloroplasts and mitochondria both contain a circular DNA chromosome, and ribosomes.  Why does this evidence support the theory of endosymbiosis as the mechanism for the origin of eukaryotic cells? a) Today, could mitochondria live independently of their eukaryotic cell host?  Give two pieces of evidence to support your answer.
According to the endosymbiont theory:   a)  modern plant cells are able to carry out photosynthesis because their ancestors engulfed cyanobacteria.   b)  chloroplasts and mitochondria evolved from prokaryotic cells.   c)  ancestral eukaryotic cells acquired the ability to carry out aerobic respiration as a result of engulfing aerobic bacteria.   d)  a and c   e)  a, b and c
