Post by: Tamera on Feb 20, 2018
The DNA in chloroplasts and mitochondria of eukaryotic cells is derived from Bacteria.
 
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false.



Mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own DNA but use the ribosomes of the host cell.
 
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false.



Divergence of the green and red algal lineages at least partially explains how two different primary endosymbiosis events occurred to form different chloroplast types in different taxa.
 
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false.



Unlike the 16S rRNA gene phylogenetics used to identify relatedness in Bacteria, the 18S rRNA gene is by itself unreliable for phylogeny of members in Eukarya.
 
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false.



The green alga Botryococcus braunii is a candidate for production of biofuel due to its ability to produce
 
  A) and withstand large amounts of alcohols.
  B) hydrogen gas.
  C) long-chain (C30C36) hydrocarbons.
  D) short-chain (C8C14) hydrocarbons.
