the stroma, consisting of set of flat disc like sacs called thylakoid. The thylakoid membrane encloses a fluid filled lumen or space, which is separated by thylakoid membrane with stroma. The chlorophyll is embedded in the thylakoid membrane. Chlorophyll absorbs light and converts it into chemical energy of ATP and NADPH; the products which synthesize carbohydrate in the stroma of chloroplast.
But photosynthetic prokaryotes lack chloroplast all together in their cells. So, for carbohydrate synthesizing, they do have unstacked photosynthetic membranes, which work like thylakoid.

Are prokaryotes simple?
Prokaryotes are the simplest organisms. They are single celled without organelles like a nucleus or mitochondria.
Does everyone have mitochondria?
Yes. Mitochondria are essential to eukaryotic cells. Mitochondria produce ATP from organic compounds (primarily carbohydrates, but also lipids and proteins) and ATP is the cell's primary source of energy. A person could not survive without mitochondria.
What has the same function as the mitochondria?
In eukaryotic cells the electron transfer chain of cellular respiration occurs in the inner membrane of the mitochondria however, prokaryotic cells lack a mitochondria and the electron transfer chain therefore occurs in the plasma membrane of the cell. One must remember that in prokaryotes 38 ATP are produced during cellular respiration. In eukaryotes 36 ATP are produced due to the loss of two ATP while traversing acrosst the mitochondrial membrane.
What makes ATP?
Mitochondria makes the ATP
How much ATP can be produced without mitochondria?
Yes, Mitochondria make up to 80% of our atp, without it we cannot survive, but it doesnt mean it is the only source of atp.
Are prokaryotes simple?
Prokaryotes are the simplest organisms. They are single celled without organelles like a nucleus or mitochondria.
What does the organelle need in order to produce ATP?
The site for aerobic cellular respiration - where the majority of ATP is produced - is the mitochondria.However, many organisms (prokaryotes) do not have mitochondria - and it is still possible to produce ATP for the cell's energy needs without them. So mitochondria are not exactly 'required', it just a much less efficient process without them.
How does mitochondria benefit us?
Mitochondria benefits us by breaking down the sugar to release energy. Without mitochondria, there won't be ATP.
Does everyone have mitochondria?
Yes. Mitochondria are essential to eukaryotic cells. Mitochondria produce ATP from organic compounds (primarily carbohydrates, but also lipids and proteins) and ATP is the cell's primary source of energy. A person could not survive without mitochondria.
Production of atp occurs within which organelle?
Mitochondria is responsible for ATP production.
How mitochondria are related to ATP?
Mitochondria are the organelles that make ATP for the cell.
In which organelle is ATP made?
mitochondria
What are advantages to having mitochondrial power production?
Mitochondria provide ATP for the cell. ATP is used for mostly all of cellular processes. Per glucose, mitochondria can produce roughly 36 ATP per glucose molecule that is broken down. Cells without mitochondria just produce 2 ATP per glucose. As you can see, there is a huge advantage in having mitochondria, as we get 18x more ATP per glucose through mitochondria.
What has the same function as the mitochondria?
In eukaryotic cells the electron transfer chain of cellular respiration occurs in the inner membrane of the mitochondria however, prokaryotic cells lack a mitochondria and the electron transfer chain therefore occurs in the plasma membrane of the cell. One must remember that in prokaryotes 38 ATP are produced during cellular respiration. In eukaryotes 36 ATP are produced due to the loss of two ATP while traversing acrosst the mitochondrial membrane.
Which species does not have mitochondria?
Mitochondria are only found in eukaryotes.They are not in prokaryotes.
Where is ATP produced in cell?
ATP is produced in the mitochondria by the process of cellular respiration.
Which organelles contain functioning ATP synthetase complexes in their membranes?
That would be the mitochondria and chloroplasts.
