Which organelle indicates that eukaryotic cells have evolved from prokaryotic cells?
The mitochondria and the chloroplast provide evidence that eukaryotic cells may have evolved from prokaryotic cells.
What eukaryotic organelles or features might have evolved as a part of or as an elaboration of the endomembrane system?
nuclear envelope
What is the difference between something eukaryotic and something prokaryotic?
There are quite a few differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus, while eukaryotic cells do. Prokaryotic cells are not found in humans while eukaryotic cells are. Prokaryotic cells are primitive while eukaryotic cells are much more evolved.
What is the best source of information on how an organism has evolved over time?
Its DNA as well as its ancestor organisms.
According to Lynn Margulis eukaryotic cells may have evolved from?
from mitochondria that grew very large i think i not sure
Is it true that the ancestor of all eukaryotic cells evolved about 2 billion years ago?
yes and no
Which two kingdoms in Eukarya evolved most recently?
The two kingdoms in Eukarya that evolved most recently are Animalia and Fungi. They emerged relatively later in the evolutionary timeline compared to other eukaryotic kingdoms such as Plantae and Protista, with Animalia diverging from a common ancestor with fungi around 1.2 billion years ago.
What is cellular organization?
It basically means all cells are divided into two types: prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells evolved 3.5 billion years ago and have a nucleus. Examples of a Prokaryotic cell include protista, fungi, plants and animals. Eukaryotic cells evolved 1.5 billion years ago and do not have a nucleus. An example of a Eukaryotic cell is bacteria.
How are humans related to every other living thing on earth?
Humans evolved from primates. Primates evolved from an earlier mammal, and all other mammals around today evolved from the same mammal. This makes us evolutionary cousins to all other mammals. This mammal evolved from a reptile. That reptile descended from the first reptile, which also gave rise to all other reptiles and to birds. Hence, we are cousins with all reptiles and birds. Reptiles evolved from an amphibian, and that amphibian evolved from the first amphibian, which gave rise to all other amphibians. Amphibians evolved from fish. Fish evolved from more primitive, invertebrate animals. The earliest animal evolved from a eukaryotic organism, and that eukaryotic organism shared a common ancestor with fungi. That common ancestor evolved from earlier eukaryotes, and these shared a common ancestor with algae. Plants evolved from algae, so this makes us very distant cousins with plants. Even before that, eukaryotes evolved from prokaryotes (either bacteria or archaea), and all prokaryotes trace back to one species that appeared more than 3.5 billion years ago. Hence, every living thing descended from the first prokaryote. That is how humans are related to all living things.
Is it fact that human are evolved from monkey?
No, we share a common ancestor but we have not evolved from monkeys.
Which organelle indicates that eukaryotic cells have evolved from prokaryotic cells?
The mitochondria and the chloroplast provide evidence that eukaryotic cells may have evolved from prokaryotic cells.
Why are prokaryotes older then eukaryotes?
Prokaryotes are more than 2 billion years older than eukaryotes.
What other hominids evolved from the same common ancestor as human?
homminids evolved from the same common
When did the first single eukaryotic appear?
According to fossil remains found in ancient rocks, the first eukaryotes are thought to have evolved from primitive prokaryotes more than two billion years ago.
What is the name of your oldest common ancestor?
We evolved about 500 million years ago from fish that evolved to anphibians then mammals then we evolved to primates
Why dragonflies and damselflies evolved from a common ancestor?
Asexual ancestry
Evidence life evolved from a single ancestor?
This question is ambiguous? Or at least answering it would divulge nothing. What would constitute a single ancestor? Need it be a single ancestor.
