Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -All electron-transport processes occur in the thylakoid membrane: to make ATP, H+ is pumped into the thylakoid space, and a backflow of H+ through an ATP synthase then produces the ATP in the chloroplast stroma.
Detailed explanation-2: -The mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) consists of five protein complexes integrated into the inner mitochondrial membrane.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: The correct answer is (c) endosymbiosis. Both mitochondria and chloroplasts are thought to have evolved by the process of endosymbiosis.
