Summary Introduction
To review:
The formation of protocells inside water from the cluster of proteins, lipids, and
Introduction:
The fatty acids form micelles inside water. These micelles consist of two important parts: a hydrophobic tail and a hydrophilic head. The hydrophobic head is water repelling and the hydrophilic tail is water loving.

- Please, need help with the explanation of the answer: During Chemical Evolution, what would one expect to find inside the protocell? a) Water mixed with many non-polar molecules. b) Fatty Acids mixed with non-polar molecules. c) a wide variety of different ionic and polar covalent molecules dissolved in water. d) Functioning proteins. E) Living single-celled organismsarrow_forwardEBDOSYMBIOTIC THEORY is the evolution theory that includes a larger and one smaller cell. The larger cell act as a host and the smaller cell is called the endosymbiont that is engulfed by the host cell. The larger cell referred to eukaryotic cell and the smaller cell represent prokaryotic cell. While BIOCHEMISTRY, is the study of the chemistry of cells and organisms. Thus, it is concerned with the types of molecules found in biological systems, their structure, and their chemical properties. QUESTION: How ENDOSYMBIOSIS THEORY applies to this subject (BIOCHEMISTRY)?arrow_forwardMulticellular organisms with a true nucleus, histone proteins, ester-linked fatty acids in their cell membranes, heterokont ancestry, and cell walls with a high content of cellulose (over 20%) must be: members of kingdom Plantae members of kingdom Eubacteria members of kingdom Protista members of kingdom Animalia members of kingdom Fungiarrow_forward
- All of the following statements are true about the3-domain classification system EXCEPT:(a) The three domains are Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya.(b) Lateral gene transfer has forced us to rethink our do-main model from a “tree of life” to a “shrub of life.”(c) Domains are higher than the category of kingdoms.(d) Compared to Bacteria, Archaea inhabit the same en-virons and have the same amount of peptidoglycan intheir cell walls.(e) All of the above are true.arrow_forwardWhat types of biological abilities can be combined to create more capable, more complex cells? How does the presecence of different types of ribosomes inside a eukaryotic cell strengthen the endosymbiotic theory? How does chloroplasts and mitochondria found within a cell have two membranes? How does the emergence of endosymbotic theory change the way humans view microorganisms? Will people be comfortable imaginning that the life functions of pants and animals, including their own, are actually dependent on the coexistence of many different microscopic pieces?arrow_forwardHow Endosymbiotic theory can be applied to biomolecules as it invloves in the development of nucleic acid and DNA?
