Answer:

The correct answer is - C. retention of their own genome.

Explanation:

The endosymbiotic theory is a theory that suggests that eukaryotic cells are developed from prokaryotic cells. According to this theory, organelles like mitochondria are developed in eukaryotic cells as the result of proteo-bacteria cells engulfing aerobic bacteria.

The evidence of this theory can be seen as the mitochondria has their own genome such as circular DNA and ribosomes as the prokaryotes.

What benefit does an organism gain by only using this method of reproduction?
alexdok [17]

Explanation:

In a stable or predictable environment, asexual reproduction is an effective means of reproduction because all the offspring will be adapted to that environment. In an unstable or unpredictable environment asexually-reproducing species may be at a disadvantage because all the offspring are genetically identical and may not have the genetic variation to survive in new or different conditions. On the other hand, the rapid rates of asexual reproduction may allow for a speedy response to environmental changes if individuals have mutations. An additional advantage of asexual reproduction is that colonization of new habitats may be easier when an individual does not need to find a mate to reproduce.
