Question
Chapter 8, Problem 11TYU
Summary Introduction
To explain:
Whether the DNA sequence of ribosomal RNA gene of chloroplast will be same as the one in the plant nucleus or as that of a photosynthetic bacterium and what does it say about the evolution of photosynthesis.
Concept introduction:
The endosymbiotic theory says that the eukaryotes evolved from prokaryotes. The eukaryotic plant organelle, chloroplast was originally a photosynthetic prokaryote that was engulfed by another organism.
