Are Chloroplasts and bacteria similar, at different ends of the size range, exactly the same, or none of these?

Please help :confused:

And what do you think the answer is more likely to be?

I suppose you know what is a chloroplast, where to find it usually. I also suppose you know what is a bacterium, and its approximate size.

Chloroplasts are most similar to the cyanobacteria (=blue-green algae) because they share a common evolutionary ancestor. This explanation for their similarities is called the endosymbiotic theory.
