Answer:  Symbiogenesis

The process responsible for the evolution of mitochondria and chloroplasts in eukaryotes is Symbiogenesis or endosymbiotic theory. 

This theory states<span> that </span>mitochondria and chloroplasts originated from bacteria entering a eukaryotic cell to form a symbiotic relationship.

Among the pieces of evidence supporting symbiogenesis are that new mitochondria and plastids are formed only through binary fission and the striking similarities between bacteria and these organelles<span><span /> (mitochondria and chloroplasts). Similarities include 1) They have their own DNA, which is separate from the DNA found in the nucleus of the cell. and  2) both organelles use their DNA to produce many proteins and enzymes required for their function</span>

Amiraneli [1.4K]

The lost carbons are released as CO2.

Krebs Cycle- The Krebs cycle, sometimes called the TCA cycle or the citric acid cycle, is a series of chemical processes that take place in the mitochondria and are essential for the aerobic respiration that provides energy to nearly all living things. It consumes oxygen and produces carbon dioxide and water as waste. ATP is created here from ADP.

Mitochondria- The majority of the chemical energy required to drive a cell's metabolic operations is produced by mitochondria, which are membrane-bound cell organelles (mitochondrion, singular). Adenosine triphosphate, a tiny molecule, serves as a storage container for the chemical energy generated by the mitochondria (ATP).

What type of organism harvests energy to build organic molecules that support animals, fungi, and all the other levels of a food
Bess [88]

Primary producer type of organism harvests energy to build organic molecules that support animals, fungi, and all the other levels of a food web.

<h3>What is primary producer?</h3>
  • The only organisms that can harvest energy from sunlight or chemicals and use it to create food are plants, some algae, and specific bacteria.
  • With some plants releasing seeds that only germinate after a fierce fire, the chaparral vegetation is predominately made up of shrubs and is adapted to recurrent fires.
  • Autotrophs include algae, plants, certain bacteria, and fungi. Autotrophs are the food chain's producers because they make their own energy and nutrients.
  • Like the majority of autotrophs, kelp produces energy through a process known as photosynthesis.
  • All fungi are heterotrophic, which means they draw their energy from other living things.
