Select the wrong statement from the following
Newton's first law states that an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an external force.
Newton's second law states that the force acting on an object is equal to the mass of the object times its acceleration (F = ma).
Newton's third law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Newton's laws apply universally without exception, even in non-inertial reference frames.
Both mitochondria and chloroplasts contain their own DNA. This DNA is crucial for:
Controlling all cellular activities.
Synthesizing some of their own proteins.
Directing the synthesis of all cellular proteins.
Encoding all the genetic information of the cell.

Which statement regarding the formation of mitochondria and chloroplasts is true?
They are formed de novo from nuclear DNA.
They arise spontaneously from the cytoplasm.
They are formed by division of pre-existing organelles.
They are synthesized by the endoplasmic reticulum.
