Question

Which of the following is not supported by the endosymbiotic theory?

Ancient prokaryotes ingested the smaller prokaryotes in a parasitic relationship.

Ancient aerobic prokaryotes that lived in community inside other prokaryotes evolved into mitochondria.

Ancient photosynthetic prokaryotes evolved into modern chloroplasts.

Ancient prokaryotes that became mitochondria lost their individual abilities but remained able to reproduce.

Answer 4

I do apologize, but parasitic organelles are not my expertise. XD
Good luck though.

Sorry I am not sure

Answer 12

@JoannaBlackwelder @johny9

Answer 13

Ancient prokaryotes ingested the smaller prokaryotes in a parasitic relationship.

Eukaryotic cells developed from a *mutualistic* relationship between prokaryotes.

Answer 14

its c, right? @Mokeira

Answer 15

in the order you have written them in your questions, it looks like the first one

Answer 16

@agreene

Answer 17

so it would be Ancient prokaryotes ingested the smaller prokaryotes in a parasitic relationship.? @mokeira

Answer 18

yeah..i have actually googled but i am not too sure but that should be it

Answer 19

So, I would pick B, and this is why:
The theory basically states that organelles (mitochondria, plastids [eg: cholorplasts]) came from symbiotic relationships. which is basically B

C is also a good choice; however, it implies that the prokaryotes evolved INTO the cholorplasts. which is to say the cells became cholorplasts and not that they shared genetic information to create cholorplasts in the new cell lines.

Answer 20

so it would be better B? @agreene

Answer 21

got cleared?? @laurisve

Answer 22

I would go with B

Answer 23

i think so , so the correct answer would be B? @agreene @aryandecoolest

Answer 24

yeah!! think so :O
