Answer 1

In my opinion, Endosymbiosis is important because it is a theory that explains the origin of chloroplast and mitochondria. It is also a theory that explains how eukaryotic cells came to be.

Darwinian evolution proposes that all living organisms are formed by descent with modification from a common ancestor or cell. Endosymbiosis explains the origins of Eukaryotic cells by the theory that one prokaryotic cell absorbed another prokaryotic cell creating a cell with multiple membranes.
