Answer:
c. Both have their own DNA.
Explanation:
Both chloroplast and mitochondria are semi-autonomous organelles which means that they both have their own DNA. Both of these organelles have a circular DNA and make some of their own proteins by themselves. Both are double membrane-bound organelles. Chloroplast has a third membrane system called thylakoid.
Chloroplasts are found in the plant cells only as they are the site for photosynthesis. Mitochondria are present in both plant and animal cells and are the site for cellular respiration to produce energy to support the vital functions of cells.
Facilitated diffusion is usually significant to pass the ions across the hydrophobic layer of the plasma membrane. Transmembrane integral protein and careers proteins provide the channels that allow the ion to pass across the membrane. When an ion bind to their active site on the protein (note that the proteins are very selective), the protein changes conformation. It is this change in conformation opens up the channel that allows the ions to be passed across the membrane. When the ions are released inside of the cell, the protein resumes normal shape (and the channel also closes) and the active site becomes available again or another ion.
The answer is D. Merry Christmas!
