16. Which organelle may have allowed early eukaryotes to make food and produce oxygen? (a) the Golgi apparatus (b) the central vacuole (c) the plastids

Respuesta :

Answer:

the plastids

Explanation:

Answer:  

The plastids are the organelles that compose the cells of plants and algae. These contain chloroplasts, which allow them to capture energy from sunlight. If they are ever removed, these cells will eventually lose their ability to photosynthesize food without help from another organism - they have lost an essential organelle. Without the presence of this organelle, eukaryotes may not have been able to use sunlight as a mechanism for producing oxygen or making nutrients such as glucose available for consumption.
