Question
Chapter 27.1, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To suggest: A hypothesis explaining the resemblance of thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts and cyanobacteria.
Concept introduction:
The prokaryotic cells are simple in structure and arrangement of DNA though some prokaryotic cells exhibit some specialized membranes such as thylakoid membranes to perform metabolic functions. In general, the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts resemble to the thylakoid membranes present in cyanobacteria.

“Watermelon snow” in Antarctica is caused by a certain species of photosynthetic green algae that thrives in subzero temperatures (Chlamydomonas nivalis). These algae are also found in high-altitude, year-round snowfields. In both locations, Uv light levels tend to be high. Propose an explanation for why this alga appears reddish-pink.
The question is also in the picture
How can the hypothesis
that asserts that chloroplasts
as well as mitochondria were
primitive prokaryotes that
associated in mutualism with
primitive anaerobic eukaryotic
cells be corroborated?

He then added a drop of water containing bacteria that use aerobic respiration.
