Answer #1

1a).

   they share genetic similarity to proteobacteria ----> TRUE (this indicates the inheritance of mitochondria from the microbes because it does not undergo recombination)

they have undergone rapid mutagenesis ----> FALSE
   they show signs of horizontal gene transfer ----> TRUE
   they exhibit a similar structural composition ----> FALSE
