Although all organelles of the eukaryotic cell interact with each other within the cell to maintain homeostasis, the mitochondrion has a unique evolutionary history. It is proposed that this organelle originated as an engulfed aerobic bacterial cell that lived in a symbiotic relationship with its host cell. This explanation for the origin of the mitochondria can be supported by multiple lines of evidence. Select ALL statements that could provide accurate support for the theory of endosymbiosis as it relates to the mitochondrion. A) Mitochondria have multiple membrane layers. B) Mitochondria are the largest and most numerous organelle in the cell. C) Mitochondria have their own ribosomes separate from the ribosomes in the cell. D) Mitochondria have their own DNA that resembles the circular chromosome of bacteria. Eliminate E) Mitochondria have the ability to control when the cell undergoes mitosis or exits the cell cycle.
