Where do scientists believe mitochondria and chloroplasts originated?
Some scientists believe that mitochondria and chloroplasts were at one time independent-living bacteria that were engulfed by eukaryotic cells, forming an endosymbiotic relationship. This is because both mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own DNA and replicate themselves within the cells in which they occur.
What organisms are the first to photosynthesize?
Scientists believe the first photosynthetic organisms may have been cyanobacteria. This is believed because the biochemical pathways in the unicellular cyanobacteria.

How do scientist know that the first organisms were simple unicellular organisms?
Scientists data can only date back to when these simple, unicelluar organisms lived and thus believe other living organisms evolved through them.

What is a cells mitochondria?
Mitochondria are the cells source of energy. I believe that it takes protein and turns it into energy for the cell.
Is god real in a scientists mind?
There are scientists that believe in a god and there are scientists that don't. Surveys find that a large majority of scientists do not believe in a god and even fewer believe in a creation account of the world.
