Question
Biologists think that endosymbiosis gave rise to mitochondria
before plastids partly because
(A) the products of photosynthesis could not be metabolized
without mitochondrial enzymes.

whereas many eukaryotes do not have plastids.
(C) mitochondrial DNA is less similar to prokaryotic DNA than
is plastid DNA.
(D) without mitochondrial CO2 production, photosynthesis
could not occur.
