Please place the images in the correct order to assess your understanding of endosymbiosis c Y Ancestral cell A smaller prokaryotic cell related to modern rickettsias that can live intracellularly The larger cell engulfs the smaller one smaller one survives and remains surrounded by the vacuolar membrane Smaller bacterium becomes a permanent resident of its host s cytoplasm it multiplies and is passed on during cell division It utilizes aerobic metabolism and increases energy availability for the host Ancestral eukaryotic cell develops additional membrane pouches that become the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus Photosynthetic bacteria ancient cyanobacteria are also engulfed they develop into chloroplasts

A weightlifter is using heavy weights in short bursts for a competition Because his muscle cells are not able to take in enough oxygen to make very much ATP the weightlifter begins to get fatigue in his muscles Which of the following processes is most likely going on in the muscles of the weightlifter as he competes in his event As the cells run out of oxygen they die off gradually and the weightlifter s muscles have fewer contracting muscle cells The cells will never run out of oxygen if the weightlifter is breathing As the cells run out of oxygen they will continue to make the same amount of ATP since oxygen is not required to make ATP As the cells run out of oxygen they switch to anaerobic respiration which allows the cell to make small amounts of ATP in the absence of oxygen
