That is not true. They contain their own DNA

Do mitochondria lack genetic information?

Mitochondria have mitochondrial DNA inherited through the cytoplasm of the mother.


Is it true both chloroplasts and mitochondria lack genetic information in the form of DNA?

No, that statement is not true. Both chloroplasts and mitochondria contain their own DNA, which is distinct from the nuclear DNA of the cell. This genetic material is involved in encoding proteins essential for their respective functions in photosynthesis and energy production. Their DNA is similar to that of bacteria, supporting the endosymbiotic theory of their origin.


Do both chloroplasts and mitochondria lack genetic information in the form of DNA?

No, mitochondria have their own DNA separate from the nuclear DNA found in the cell. This DNA encodes for some of the proteins needed for mitochondrial function. Chloroplasts also have their own DNA, containing genes that code for some chloroplast-specific proteins.


What do chloroplasts and mitochondria have other organelles lack?

their own DNA


Why must plant cells have both mitochondria and chloroplasts?

Plants need both mitochondria and chloroplasts to maintain a healthy plant. The mitochondria power the plant when the chlorophyll is stunted by lack of sunlight.


Do mitochondria and chloroplasts lack DNA?

Of course not,they have DNA.So they can self replicate.


What is it that all organisms in the Monera kingdom are missing?

All organisms in the Monera kingdom lack a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, such as mitochondria and chloroplasts. They are prokaryotic, meaning their genetic material floats freely in the cell in a region called the nucleoid.


What do monerans lack that is present other organisim?

Monerans lack membrane-bound organelles which are present in other organisms. These membrane-bound organelles include the mitochondria and chloroplasts. An example of a monera is bacteria.


What other organelle is missing from a humans cheek cell?

Human cheek cells, like other eukaryotic cells, are missing chloroplasts, which are organelles responsible for photosynthesis in plants and some protists. Since cheek cells are part of animal tissue, they do not perform photosynthesis and therefore lack chloroplasts. Instead, they contain other organelles such as mitochondria for energy production and a nucleus for genetic material.


What kingdoms are without chloroplasts?

Animalia and Fungi are two kingdoms that do not have chloroplasts. While they have other organelles and structures that perform similar functions, such as mitochondria, they do not possess chloroplasts for photosynthesis like plants and some other organisms do.


What structures are found in bacterial plant and animal cells?

Bacterial cells, which are prokaryotic, typically contain structures such as a cell membrane, cell wall, ribosomes, and genetic material in the form of a circular DNA molecule. They lack membrane-bound organelles. In contrast, plant cells (eukaryotic) have a cell wall, chloroplasts for photosynthesis, and large central vacuoles, while animal cells have a flexible cell membrane, various organelles like mitochondria and lysosomes, but lack cell walls and chloroplasts.
