With the endosymbiotic hypothesis in mind, what structure within modern-day chloroplasts is likely derived from the cytoplasm of
777dan777 [17]

Inner membrane of the chloroplasts

Explanation:

The present day eukayrotes are all considered to be derived from its original ancestor – the cyanobacteria.

Earlier, photosynthesis by the first photoautotrophs took place utilizing hydrogen sulphide as the electron donor. However, it was later when the cyanobacteria, which were originally residing in the mitochondria of an eukaryotic cell under an endosymbiotic relationship, developed into true chloroplasts, the use of water as electron donor to perform photosynthesis began.  

The cyanobacteria were aerobic in nature and required oxygen to survive. They evolved the chloroplasts covered with an external protective membrane and an internal membrane. It is the internal membrane which contains all the necessary organelles or components necessary for photosynthesis like thyllakoids, stroma etc which helped them to utilize water as an electron donor during photosynthesis like all the eukaryotes.

What is the relationship between water clarity and otter survival?
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Their survival is correlated to water clarity because kelp, the main food of otters' prey (sea urchins), needs clear water to thrive.

Explanation:

Otters are extremely important organisms, also known as "<em>keystone</em>" species. They keep aquatic ecosystems healthy because they control other populations such as sea urchin populations that consume kelp, sometimes in excess.

For this reason, otters prefer inhabiting near the kelp, which generally grows in clear waters near shores. They also prey on crabs, marine snails, squid, etc. as they possess the ability to dive as deep as 250 feet.

Therefore, their survival is correlated to water clarity because kelp, the main food of otters' prey (sea urchins), needs clear water to thrive.

Explain the concept of growth using these terms: differentiate, meristem, elongation, and vascular cambium.
egoroff_w [7]

Answer: Well for one, Differentiate is when a cell matures and is used in a specific function. Meristem is a cell which never differeates and constantly divides so it is a mitotic cell. Elongation is the plant growing length wise therefore the meristem elongates the plant. Vascular cambium is the cambium which starts out in vascular bundles of the plant and then grows to form a ring inside the stem of plants that live for more than year- it causes and increase in thickness of the stem and branches.

hope this helped luv :)
