Reverse Transcription Drives Evolution

Reverse transcription definitely drives evolution. Endo symbiogenesis is this structure. For instance, let's look at chloroplat and they originated when a photo synthetic bac rea merged with them. In our own cells, our mito chondri in our cells were supposedly blue, green algi that somehow became a part of our cells and became the mitochondria. So two desperate organisms, in some cases, seeme to combine and create a new organism - which is amazing. There are mobile genetic elements that can facilitate this and therefore drive evolutionary processes. And again, there are more elements here. There is a concept of a holo bion. What it means is
