clearly address the biological interrelationships. You could have included
some detailed examples. You should be very proud of the work you put into this
final project!

** You explained the similarities and differences between prokaryotes and
eukaryotes. There was some confusion over the mitochondria. You stated they
are a kind of DNA. Mitochondria are eukaryotic organelles that produce energy
from breaking down food. They contain some of their own DNA. You did not
provide a scientific answer to explain why eukaryotic cells evolved. Because
this is a science class we need to stick to ideas that can be backed up with
scientific evidence, not religion. Your DQ2 response was posted 1 day late so
is penalized 10%.

You did not participate in the DQ threads in Week 2. Please remember that you
are required to participate two times per day on three separate days for a
minimum of six posts. If you need some ideas of how to start, please read the
Substantive Participation note in Course Materials. It lists some great tips
on creating substantive participation notes.

I really hope to see your ideas and thoughts in the DQ threads in Week 4!
