It will reinforce the idea behind the endosymbiotic theory which is suggested as the basis for the formation of eukaryotic cells. |
The endosymbiotic theory states that mitochondria and chlopoplasts in today's eukaryotic cells were once separate prokaryotic microbes. |
Different versions of endosymbiotic theory have been presented in the literature to explain the origin of eukaryotes and their mitochondria. |
I believe the endosymbiotic theory is quite speculative and not based on solid evidence. |
The evidence that supports the endosymbiotic theory includes the following. |
The endosymbiotic theory describes how a large host cell and ingested bacteria could easily become dependent on one another for survival. |
