Answer:
a.Many mitochondrial genes resemble proteobacteria genes, while the genes in the chloroplast resemble genes found in some photosynthetic bacteria.
c.Mitochondria and chloroplasts both have their own circular DNA and 70S ribosomes that are similar to those found in bacteria.
d.Mitochondria and chloroplasts replicate by a process similar to mitosis.
Explanation:
Endosymbiotic theory states that mitochondria and chloroplast which are organelles of eukaryotic cells were once independently living micro-organisms but with due course of time eukaryotic cells engulfed them and they become an integral part of these eukaryotic cells.
The resemblance between mitochondrial genes with those of proteobacteria and chloroplast genes with photosynthetic bacteria strongly support endosymbiotic theory. Apart from this, the presence of their own DNA that too circular just like prokaryotic microbes and 70 S ribosomes also support this theory. Also just like prokaryotic cells, before cell division mitochondria and chloroplasts undergo replication by means of a process known as binary fission.
D
producers are plants, so they won’t attack anyone
Darwin reasoned that natural selection organisms had adapted to new environments, giving rise to new species. It is a principle of speciation.
<h3>Speciation, natural selection and environment</h3>
Different environmental pressures (e.g. the type of food) lead to different evolutionary pathways in genetically related organisms.
The organisms subject to different environments evolve as a consequence of natural selection in order to adapt (adjust) to their corresponding environments.
In consequence, this process may eventually lead to speciation due to the emergence of reproductive isolation barriers.

All the branches of science that deal with the scientific study of living organism are called life sciences. e.g; botany,zoology,anatomy,biochemistry,embryology etc..
