Mitochondria contain their own genome, are able to duplicate, and actually divide on a different timeline from the rest of the cell. Nevertheless, mitochondria cannot function for long when isolated from the cell because they are A. Viruses B. Parasites C. Endosymbiotes D. Anaerobes 1 points

The correct answer is C. Endosymbiotes

Explanation:

In endosymbiosis, one organism called endosymbiotes lives inside a larger organism in a symbiotic relationship with means both are benefitted from each other. According to the endosymbiotic theory, both chloroplast and mitochondria are generated through endosymbiosis of different bacteria by ancestral cells.

Therefore mitochondria is an evolved bacteria that was engulfed by a bigger bacteria. This is the reason why mitochondria contains its own genome and can replicate and divide but can not function outside the cell because it requires the condition present in the cell. So the right answer is C.

a: the sheep and waste material both release carbon into the atmosphere.

this is more of a statement than a question. is there answers to go along with this, or is it opinion based?
