The question is incomplete. The rest of the question is : Which of these is not supported by the endosymbiosis theory concerning organelles?
A) contain DNA.
B) contain ribosomes.
C) are capable of living independently.
D) are surrounded by a double membrane.
Answer:
Option C) are capable of living independently is not supported by the endosymbiosis theory concerning organelles
Explanation:
The endosymbiosis theory proves that chloroplasts and mitochondria were prokaryotic cells before due to many reasons. Some of which are:
- These organelles have their own separate DNA.
- The separate DNA present in them is capable of making their own proteins.
- They are membrane- bound organelles.
However, these organelles can now not live separately outside of the cell. This might be because of the evolutionary changes which occurred in these cells during the long period of time.
Answer:
recognizes a hormone’s chemical structure
Explanation:
In living systems, chemical messengers called hormones are secreted into the body via the bloodstream or ducts by certain glands called endocrine glands e.g pancreas, hypothalamus etc. These hormones are meant to effect a physiological change in certain cells called TARGET CELLS.
In biology, a target cell is any receiving cell that has the ability to respond to signals and messengers like hormones. This responding ability of hormones is due to the possession of specific receptor sites for the specific hormones. The receptor on a particular target cell recognizes that specific hormone's chemical structure, hence, will only respond to it.
For example, an insulin hormone secreted by the pancreas will only be responded to by a target cell that recognizes the chemical structure of the insulin protein using its receptor molecule.
Answer:
Catabolism
Explanation:
Catabolism refers to the metabolic pathways to break down the complex biomolecules into simpler substances and release the energy stored in their chemical bonds.
The catabolic reactions are oxidizing reactions and remove the electrons from the substances.
For example, cellular respiration is a catabolic pathway for glucose as it oxidizes glucose into CO2 and H2O. During aerobic cellular respiration, molecular oxygen serves as the terminal electron acceptor and is reduced into water.
When a mineral is being physically affected, the property measured is it's solid form.
The answer is D. daughter element. APEX
