Chloroplasts and mitochondria are both involved in energy conversion in cells. Select the other similarity they share. Question
Afina-wow [57]

Chloroplasts and mitochondria are similar in the sense that they both contain DNA.

MITOCHONDRIA AND CHLOROPLAST:

  • Mitochondria is a membrane bound organelle found in eukaryotic cells. Mitochondria is the energy production site of cells because it is where cellular respiration takes place.

  • Chloroplast is another membrane-bound organelle in eukaryotic cells. They are the site of photosynthesis in plants.

  • Mitochondria and chloroplast are both involved in energy conversion in cells because electron transport chain occurs in both organelles.

  • However, another similarity between these two organelles is that they contain extra-chromosomal DNA.
