Antibiotic resistance in bacteria is an example of natural selection.

Explanation:

Antibiotic resistance in bacteria occurs when bacteria do not respond to the antibodies, chemical and drugs required to treat the bacterial infection.

The resistant mutant bacteria will survive the antibiotic action and would pass on this trait to its offspring. This passing of survival trait is the example of natural selection in the process of evolution.

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Mitochondria and chloroplasts are much larger than prokaryotic cells.

Explanation:

According to the Endosymbiotic theory, all the components of eukaryotic cells were once individual prokaryotic cells which were able to function on their own.

The mitochondria was independent enough to perform aerobic respiration and produce energy and the chloroplasts were able to independently convert the energy from the Sun to the chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis.

Later, these cells were engulfed by a single cell and these prokaryotes combined to form a eukaryote that was capable of performing all the functions that the independent cells could.

So, the mitochondria and chloroplasts were able to reproduce on their own, had their own ribosomes and had DNA resembling that of bacteria as they were prokaryotic in nature.

However, mitochondria and chloroplasts could not be larger than the prokaryotic cells to support the endosymbiotic theory.

This is because in order to establish a relationship between the bacteria and the mitochondria and chloroplasts, and for these organelles to have developed from bacteria as their ancestors, they must have sizes comparable to bacteria and other prokaryotes.

At the same time, size in itself is not enough evidence to support origin of these organelles from the bacteria.
