D
Mitochondria can perform photosynthesis like chloroplasts.
검증된 단계별 안내1
Understand the endosymbiotic theory: This theory suggests that mitochondria originated from free-living prokaryotic organisms that were engulfed by an ancestral eukaryotic cell.
Identify key characteristics of prokaryotic cells: Prokaryotes, such as bacteria, typically have circular DNA and lack a nucleus.
Evaluate the evidence: Mitochondria have their own circular DNA, which is similar to the DNA found in prokaryotes, supporting the idea that they originated from a prokaryotic ancestor.
Consider the structure of mitochondria: Mitochondria are surrounded by a double membrane, not a single membrane, which is consistent with the engulfing mechanism proposed by the endosymbiotic theory.
Clarify misconceptions: Mitochondria cannot reproduce independently outside the cell, nor can they perform photosynthesis. These statements do not support the endosymbiotic theory.
