How do scientists believe that chloroplasts got into photosynthetic cells? ​

The development of chloroplast is thought to occur through endosymbiosis.

According to the endosymbiosis, some of the organelles found in modern eukaryotic cells, such as mitochondria and chloroplasts, were previously prokaryotic microorganisms. A non-photosynthetic creature acquired one photosynthetic cell, and the chloroplast was subsequently created.

An organelle known as a chloroplast is crucial to the process of photosynthesis in plants. It contains pigments like chlorophyll and other  pigments that are in charge of capturing sunlight. Since each chloroplast has two membranes, other organelles such as mitochondria are referred to as double-membrane organelles. It is believed that cyanobacterial endosymbiosis played a role in the genesis of the chloroplast. Prokaryotic organisms like cyanobacteria have the capacity to prepare their food through the process of photosynthesis.

Why is large-scale nuclear fission a rare phenomenon on Earth? A. There isn't enough energy to start a chain reaction in nature.
siniylev [52]

The answer is; C

The radioisotopes in the interior of the earth are not in pure form and have many embedded impurities and are interspersed. Therefore when a neutron is released by a decaying atom, its chances of hitting another radioisotope atom (to continue the chain reaction) are lower than in a manmade nuclear reactor. This way, the radioactive chain reaction in the earth’s interior is not well sustained.
