Which of the following pieces of evidence supports the claim that mitochondria trace their history back to free-living bacteria? a) mitochondria have their own dna molecules, separate from the rest of the cell's dna b) some protists do not contain mitochondria c) the citric acid cycle occurs in the matrix of mitochondria d) mitochondria converts adp into atp.

The answer is (A) Mitochondria have their own DNA molecules, separate from the rest of the cell's DNA.

The endosymbiotic hypothesis concerns with the presence of two special organelles, mitochondria and chloroplast within the eukaryotic cell. These two organelles have their own set of DNA that is different from the nuclear DNA of the eukaryotic cell. It is believed that a primordial eukaryotic cell was in a symbiotic relationship with mitochondria-like bacterium. The primordial cell eventually engulfed the mitochondria-like bacterium for ATP production to power itself.

the "power" of a lens is its resolution power, or its ability to distinguish between to closely located points. with the low power lens, it is likely you will see the rough form of the hay and maybe some movement of dots around the hay. however, when observed with the high power lens, the detailed features of the hay become visible and the microbes being grown are more clearly visible.

answers are:

lysogenic     viral dna merges with host cell dna

lysogenic     no symptoms

lytic               viral dna takes over

lysogenic     virus does not destroy host cell

lytic               virus destroys host cell

lytic               induces symptoms of viral infection

lysogenic       cell reproduces and spreads provirus
