Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The leading hypothesis, called the endosymbiotic theory, is that eukaryotes arose as a result of a fusion of Archaean cells with bacteria, where an ancient Archaean engulfed (but did not eat) an ancient, aerobic bacterial cell.
Detailed explanation-2: -The hypothesis that eukaryotic cells evolved from a symbiotic association of prokaryotes-endosymbiosis-is particularly well supported by studies of mitochondria and chloroplasts, which are thought to have evolved from bacteria living in large cells.
Detailed explanation-3: -Endosymbiosis explains the origin of mitochondria and chloroplasts, but could it also explain other features of the eukaryotic cell?
