Answer 1

the mitochondria

Step-by-step explanation:

endosymbiotic theory is prevalent here.

DNA, RNA, and Ribosomes are also all present in all life.

DNA- genetic material! obviously all present

RNA- a single strand of genetic information to go into the ribosome to make proteins

ribosome; the thing that makes proteins!

The mitochondria is an organized organelle, unlike everything else on this list, which is not present in prokaryotes but eukaryotes.
