Vikki [24]

Answer:

<em>Endosymbiosis is important because it is a theory that explains the origin of chloroplast and mitochondria. It is also a theory that explains how eukaryotic cells came to be. DNA, RNA, Ribosomes and Protein Synthesis </em>

<em> </em>

<em>This provided the first substantial evidence for the endosymbiotic hypothesis. It was also determined that mitochondria and chloroplasts divide independently of the cell they live in.</em>
