question
B
answer
Plastids that are surrounded by more than two membranes are evidence of A) Origin of the plastids from archaea B) Secondary endosymbiosis C) Evolution from mitochondria D) Fusion of plastids E) Budding of the plastids from the nuclear envelope
question
B
answer
Biologists suspect that Indocin biosis give rise to mitochondria before plastids partly because A) Mitochondrial proteins are synthesized on cytosolic ribosomes, where as plastids utilize their own ribosomes. B) All eukaryotes have mitochondria (or their remnants), where as many eukaryotes do not have plastids. C) The products of photosynthesis could not be metabolized without mitochondrial enzymes. D) Without mitochondrial CO2 production, photosynthesis could not occur. E) Mitochondrial DNA is less similar to prokaryotic DNA than is plastid DNA.
question

question
E
answer
In life cycles with the alternation of generations, multicellular haploid forms alternate with A) Multicellular polyploid forms B) Unicellular diploid forms C) Multicellular haploid forms D) Unicellular haploid forms E) Multicellular diploid forms
question
C
answer
Based on the phylogenetic tree in Figure 28.3 in your textbook, which of the following statements is correct? A) The most recent common ancestor of Excavata is older than that of Chromalveolata.

D) Excavata is the most basal eukaryotic supergroup. E) The most recent common ancestor of Chromalveolata is older than that of Rhizaria.
question
E
answer
Why has the kingdom Protista been abandoned? A) Some protists are multicellular. B) The kingdom Protista is polyphyletic. C) Some protists are more closely related to plants, animals, or fungi than they are two other protists. D) Some protists are as small as prokaryotes. E) The second and third answers are correct.

question
C
answer
Select the correct statement about photosynthesis by primary producers. A) Cyanobacteria carry out more of the world's photosynthesis than protist do. B) Land plants carry out over 80% of the world's photosynthesis. C) Photosynthetic protists and prokaryotes Carry out the majority of the photosynthesis in aquatic communities.
question

question
D
answer
Which of the following is true of secondary endosymbiosis? A) It is indicated by the presence of a double membrane surrounding the endymbiont. B) An organism containing one endosymbiont engulfs another organism, and that organism becomes an endosymbiont. C) It is indicated by the presence of a nucleomorph. D) An organism containing an endosymbiont is engulfed by another organism and becomes an endosymbiont. E) It is indicated by the presence of a mixotroph.

question
C
answer
Coral bleaching, which causes high coral mortality, has been occurring widely in coral reefs. Coral bleaching actually refers to the death of symbiotic dinoflagellates living within the corals. Why does coral bleaching cause the corals to die? A) Dinoflagellates protect the corals from UV radiation. B) Dinoflagellates protect the corals from pathogenic bacteria. C) Dinoflagellates provide nutrients from the products of photosynthesis to the corals in exchange for a safe place to live. D) Dinoflagellates attract zooplankton and other prey that the corals eat. E) Dinoflagellates secrete the calcium carbonate that forms the "exoskeleton" of coral animals.
