In the context of the evolution of the eukaryotic cell (endosymbiotic theory), mitochondria most likely originated from which ancestral organism?
A
An internal specialization of the endoplasmic reticulum that evolved to produce ATP
B
A cyanobacterium that was engulfed and evolved into the organelle responsible for cellular respiration
C
A virus that integrated into the host genome and later became a double-membrane organelle
D
An aerobic alpha-proteobacterium that was engulfed by an ancestral host cell and became an endosymbiont
검증된 단계별 안내1
Understand the endosymbiotic theory, which explains the origin of certain organelles in eukaryotic cells as a result of a symbiotic relationship between ancestral prokaryotic cells and early eukaryotes.
Recall that mitochondria are double-membraned organelles responsible for producing ATP through cellular respiration, indicating a prokaryotic origin related to aerobic metabolism.
Identify that mitochondria most likely originated from an aerobic alpha-proteobacterium, a type of bacteria capable of using oxygen to generate energy efficiently.
Recognize that this alpha-proteobacterium was engulfed by an ancestral host cell, but instead of being digested, it formed a mutually beneficial relationship, becoming an endosymbiont.
Conclude that over evolutionary time, this endosymbiont evolved into the mitochondrion, retaining some bacterial features such as its own DNA and double membrane.
