The two correct answers that provide evidence that eukaryotes evolved through the process of endosymbiosis are:
1. **The existence of chloroplasts for photosynthesis.**
2. **The presence of mitochondria inside the cell.**
Both chloroplasts and mitochondria are thought to have originated from free-living prokaryotic organisms that were engulfed by ancestral eukaryotic cells, leading to a symbiotic relationship.
