Indicate true (T) and false (F) statements below regarding the compartmentalization of cells. Your answer would be a four-letter string composed of letters T and F only, e.g. TTTF.
( ) Almost all eukaryotic cells have plastids, but only plant cells have chloroplasts capable of photosynthesis.
( ) The perinuclear space is topologically equivalent to the extracellular space.
( ) The mitochondria and chloroplasts are thought to have evolved by invagination and pinching off from the plasma membrane of the ancient eukaryotic cell.
( ) All organelles in a eukaryotic cell can be constructed de novo, which means that the information to construct them is encoded in the genome.

Plastids are present in plants, algae, and some protozoa; both plants and algae are capable of photosynthesis using the special version of a plastid called a chloroplast. Mitochondria and chloroplasts probably evolved from bacteria that were engulfed by ancient eukaryotic cells and established a symbiotic relationship. If removed, these and many other membrane-enclosed organelles in a eukaryotic cell cannot be constructed by the cell de novo. The perinuclear space is continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum lumen and is topologically equivalent to the cell exterior.
