Please note that there is a misprint in the question. It should be "What are the main pieces of evidence that the mitochondrion originated in murky past as a prokaryotic endosymbiont in another eukaryote."

The main evidences are:-

  • Mitochondrion has 70S ribosomes in contrast to 80S ribosomes of eukaryotic cells.
  • Mitochondria have a sepearate, small, circular genome in contrast to linear genome/ chromosomes of eukaryotes.
