Answer:

Splitting.

Step-by-step explanation:

The endosymbiont theory explains the evolution of the organelles of eukaryotes by the ingestion of the materials of prokaryotes. Various evidence are available for the endosymbiont theory origin.

The mitochondria and chloroplast contains the similar RNA sequence and their genetic material is limited. The chloroplast and mitochondria divides by the process of splitting.

Thus, the answer is splitting.
