Question

"There is evidence that eukaryotic cells evolved from a prokaryotic ancestor most closely related to the Archaea. What would you predict, regarding a comparison of the inner and outer chloroplast membranes, if the endosymbiotic theory of chloroplast evolution is true?"

Answer 1

Answer:

The external eukaryotic membrane should be structurally and functionally similar to archaea membranes, while the inner membrane should be similar to bacterial membranes

Explanation:

The homology between structure and function can help to identify evolutionary relationships

Answer 2

Answer:

• The organelles inside the multi-cellular organism's cell can be analyzed and thoroughly studied with the help of the electron microscopes, which can make it sure that these organelles or cells formed up in a given sequence after the process of endosymbiosis or the theory itself. As, these organelles have a very specified form of structure along with the given membrane around it submerged in the cytoplasm of the eukaryotic cells.
