Answer:

chloroplasts and mitochondria.

Explanation:

Chloroplasts and mitochondria are the organelles capable of ATP production by photophosphorylation and oxidative phosphorylation respectively. Chloroplasts are the site for photosynthesis. The light reactions of photosynthesis include splitting of the water molecule in presence of sunlight and transfer of electrons from PS-II to PS-I via electron carrier. During electron transport, a proton gradient is created which in turn drives ATP synthesis.  

Mitochondria are the site for aerobic stages of cellular respiration. Glycolysis and Kreb's cycle, the first and second stages of cellular respiration produce NADH and FADH2 during the redox reactions. These reducing powers are oxidized by giving their electrons to the terminal electron acceptor, the oxygen molecule.

Electrons from the reducing powers are carried to oxygen molecules via a series of electron carrier proteins embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane. During electron transport, an electrochemical gradient is created which in turn drives the ATP synthesis.

Give some examples of biodiversity you find in your ecosystem.
artcher [175]

Most people recognize biodiversity by species—a group of individual living organisms that can interbreed. Examples of species include blue whales, white-tailed deer, white pine trees, sunflowers, and microscopic bacteria that can't even be seen by the naked eye.
