    Assertion: Mitochondria are considered as prokaryotic endosymbiont of cell. Reason:- Genetic system of mitochondria is simillar to prokaryotes.

    Assertion. Mitochondria and chloroplasts act as energy transducers in the cells. Reason. They make biologically useful energy available to the cells.

    The chloroplasts are believed to be bacterial endosymbionts because I. they are centres of synthesis and metabolism of carbohydrates. II. They have their own protein synthesising machinery. III. It is bounded by two membranes. IV. They are independent of nucleus.

    Assertion. Mitochondria and chloroplasts are semiautonomous argenelles. Reason. They contain ribosomes, DNA and RNAs and can synthesize some of their proteins.

    Assertion : Mitochondria & Chloroplast are connected with similar RNA sequence Reason : They show prokaryotic organisation
