Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) and the DNA of free-living photosynthesizing bacteria called cyanobacteria have been found to share a high number of similarities. Which of the following claims best supports this finding? A B с D Chloroplasts act as a reserve for some of the extra cpDNA of the cell. Chloroplasts are believed to have originated from an endosymbiosis event. Chloroplasts have the capacity to exist as free-living bacteria outside of the cell. Chloroplasts and cyanobacteria evolved independently.

Prokaryotic evolution

The term evolution means the gradual change or a transformation from a simple or primitive state to a complex or advanced state. Prokaryotic evolution is a concept that involves the evolution of the form and function of most primitive organisms (prokaryotes) through several stages and changes to form diverse life as a part of organic evolution.
