The statement(s) that are similarities between mitochondria, chloroplasts, and prokaryotes are:
1. **Circular DNA is common to prokaryotes, chloroplasts, and mitochondria.**
2. **Mitochondria, chloroplasts, and prokaryotes replicate via binary fission.**
3. **Prokaryotes, mitochondria, and chloroplasts all contain 70S ribosomes.**
The other statements are incorrect:
- Prokaryotes, mitochondria, and chloroplasts do not contain 80S ribosomes; rather, eukaryotic ribosomes are 80S.
- Linear DNA is not a common feature of prokaryotes, as they typically have circular DNA, while chloroplasts and mitochondria also have circular DNA.
