The endosymbiont theory explains the origin of the eukaryotic cell organelles where the cells were engulfed but not digested by the larger prokaryotic cells and in the process developed into the chloroplast, mitochondria and other organelles.
(A) The theory was trying to explain the evolutionary origin of the various cell organelles and,
also explains the dependence of cells on one another.
(B) The evidences that supported the Endosymbiotic theory includes;
-The photosynthetic bacteria; This bacteria utilize the sun's energy to make energy hence the oxygen released from the process accumulated in the atmosphere thereby leading to the death of the anaerobic cells.
-Organelles have their own DNA and divide independently, therefore Margulis predicted that if the organelles were really prokaryotic symbionts, then they would have their own DNA.
- The study of fossils showed the aerobic cells in it, therefore the cells could use the toxic oxygen and convert it into ATP(energy) and water. Organisms that could thrive in aerobic environments were now best suited to the environment.
Im not completely sure but I think the answer is Solar Eclipse.
Sorry if Im not correct btw
An organelle that releases energy through a common biological process that is common to eukaryotes is the mitochondrion, this would be cellular respiration.
May I please see the entire table so I can answer your question.
