Researchers have proposed a model of chloroplast evolution. According to the model, chloroplasts evolved from a small prokaryotic organism that was engulfed by an ancestral eukaryote. The engulfed prokaryote then formed an endosymbiotic relationship with the eukaryotic host.

Which of the following observations best supports the model?

a)

 

Prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms both acquire nutrients from the surrounding environment.

b)

 

Chloroplasts and some prokaryotes share similar photosynthetic reactions.

c)

 

Eukaryotes evolved after prokaryotes and have more complex structures.

d)

 

Chloroplasts are separated from other subcellular compartments by semipermeable membranes.

A researcher claims that increased atmospheric carbon dioxide levels cause increased growth rates in plants.

Which of the following statements best supports the researcher’s claim?

a)

 

Atmospheric carbon dioxide is the raw material for photosynthesis, which plants rely on for producing sugars and other organic compounds.

b)

 

Atmospheric carbon dioxide typically enters plant leaves through stomata, which plants rely on for regulating gas exchange with the atmosphere.

c)

 

Atmospheric carbon dioxide is produced by the burning of fossil fuels, which are formed from the remains of living organisms such as plants.

d)

 

Atmospheric carbon dioxide is a byproduct of cellular respiration, which is a metabolic process that occurs in plants and other living organisms.
