6 0

<span>Cells responsible of making energy and performing respiration within the cell. Depending on what type of organism they are found at, they can be known as Mitochondria, if they are in animals; and if they are in plants, Chloroplasts.
Mitochondria create energy for the cell by breaking down sugars, fats, and other fuels consumed by the cell.
Chloroplasts, on the other hand, since they are found at plants, convert sunlight into energy.</span>

Answer:

1. in animal cell and 3. in plant cell In animals mitochondria transforms energy and chloroplast in plant cell absorb energy from sun light and turns water and carbon dioxide into glucose

Explanation:

1. Mitochondria: It is the powerhouses of a cell oval in shape found in eukaryotic cell.Its a site of cellular respiration. It converts glucose in chemical energy known as ATP (Adenosine triphosphate). ATP provides energy to carry out cellular function by breaking high energy bond.Mitochondria are abundant in cells requires energy to perform functions such as muscle and liver cells.

2. Chloroplast: In plants and algae chloroplast is a site of photosynthesis,it contains a pigment chlorophyll which captures energy from sunlight and turn water and carbon dioxide into glucose as food of plants.
