Answer:

The disease is caused mainly because of the attack on the myelin sheath by own immune system.

Explanation:

The MS or multiple sclerosis refers to a possibly disabling disorder of central nervous system. In the condition, immune system fights against and destroys the myelin, that is, the protective sheath, which envelopes the nerve fibers. This causes problems of communications between the brain and the entire part of the body. Ultimately, the disease can result in deterioration or permanent destruction of the nerves.

Mitochondria and plastids are the most studied example in support of this theory. This theory explains that the aforementioned organelles are formed as they are taken inside in one another by the prokaryotic cell. Some of the evidences in support of this theory are mentioned below:
