  • Q8
    Scientists think eukaryotes may have evolved from an endosymbiotic relationship between prokaryotes of mitochondria and host parasitic cells. One piece of evidence that supports this endosymbiosis theory is that mitochondria have their own system of transcription and translation that more closely resembles protein synthesis in prokaryotes than eukaryotes. Upon evaluation of this information, which of the following statements is most likely true?
    Protein synthesis in the mitochondria is the result of bacterial cell infection.
    There was never a symbiotic relationship between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells.
    At one time, mitochondria may have been primitive prokaryotic cells.
    Mitochondria do not have DNA and, therefore, do not produce mitochondrial RNA.

  • Q9
    What evidence best supports the Endosymbiotic Theory which states that current cell organelles, like mitochondria and chloroplasts, were once prokaryotic cells consumed by other prokaryotic cells?
    Mitochondria and chloroplasts are both performing the same function.
    Mitochondria and chloroplasts can break away and live on their own without the host cell.
    Mitochondria and chloroplasts act as parasites inside the host cell.
    Mitochondria and chloroplasts have DNA coding different from the nuclear DNA.

  • Q10
    Most viruses have the structural arrangement of —
    a capsid surrounding a nucleic acid sequence
    a cell wall surrounding the cell membrane
    flagella surrounding the cell membrane
    a capsid shell made from lipids

  • Q11
    The picture shows a 3-D model of a virus called a bacteriophage. Bacteriophages can infect bacteria such as E. coli. In what way are the bacteriophage and E. coli alike?
    Question Image
    They contain antibodies.
    They reproduce by mitosis.
    They have identical genomes.
    They lack membrane-bound organelles.

  • Q12
    What is not a part of the cell theory?
