What are Nuc, Flag, ER, Mito, Chlora, Golgi, Ves and Lys
short for? Nuc is short for nucleus; Flag stands for flagella;
ER stands for endoplasmic reticulum; Mito is short for
mitochondria; Golgi is short for golgi apparatus; Last but
not least, Lys is short for lysosomes;
What does each of these organelles do in a cell? the
nucleus is the control in the cell. the flagella is used to
move the cell. the endoplasmic reticulum is used for
helping things travel in the cell. the mitochondria is in
charge of making energy. Golgi does the moving chemicals
around in the cell. the vesicle is used to store things. a
lysosome is used to break up food in the cell.

What is the autogenic hypothesis of the origin of the
eukaryotic cell? The autogenic hypothesis is that a
prokaryotic cell slowly but surely evolved on its own to
the eukaryotic cell.


What is the evidence that supports the autogenic
hypothesis? When Lito Mito went to search in the library
and it talks about how they were created from something
that already exist.


What is the endosymbiotic hypothesis? The endosymbiotic
hypothesis is that a prokaryotic cell ate smaller
organelles which evolved into what they are today.


What is the evidence for the endosymbiotic hypothesis?
The evidence that supports this is because mitochondrion
and chloroplast both have a brother cell; the cells are
extremely alike. The brother cell is a prokaryotic cell.



What are the comparative strengths and weaknesses of the
two hypotheses?The comparative strengths and weaknesses
of the two hypotheses are that there are ways that we could
reenact the cell eating the other little prokaryotic.
