Nucleus
Mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own DNA.
In prokaryotes, the cytoplasm contains the DNA. In eukaryotes, there are several (either two or three) organelles that contain DNA: the nucleus, the mitochondria, and in plants and algae the chloroplasts also.
cytoplasm and nucleas/nucleoid
Mictochondria and Chloroplasts
The main DNA in the cell is found in the nucleus. DNA is also found in two other organelles - the mitochondria and the chloroplasts.
I know one of them is the nucleolus (inside the nucleus).
DNA is mainly found in the nucleus of the cell. Of course, it can also be found in other organelles such as the mitochondria (therefore it is called mitochondrial DNA).

DNA can be found in 2 organells in a cell: the Nucleus and the Mitochondria. Chromosomes are NOT an organelle

DNA has an important function in the nucleus. DNA acts as the brain of the cell and controls the functions of the other organelles.
