Why are bacteria and archaea placed in different domains


Can you help me describe the endosymbiotic hypothesis and the evidencein favor of it. Can you think of another way, besides endosymbiosis, to explain these observations? I know endosymbiotic hypothesis says that a prokaryotic cell was consumed by a larger cell, but I don't understand the evidence to support that.

Why are bacteria and archaea placed in different domains, while diverse types of eukaryotes are placed into different kingdoms?
