Best Answer

nope. only in the chloroplast. in that there are two cycles, the light reaction and the Calvin cycle

Light reaction

light is taken in the plant

water from the roots is broken down

oxygen is released from the plant leaves

ATP and NADPH (a high energy electron carrier) is produced (carries hydrogen)

Calvin Cycle

CO2 is taken in

ATP is used as energy

NADPH is used to lower ativiation energy

(after the calvin cycle, NADPH become NADP+)

Mitochondria, is a part of plant body. It is responsible for the synthesis of food materials like producing ATP (adenotriphosphate) , which is equal to 30KJ energy.

whereas photosynthesis is performed by Chloroplast in presence of sunlight, water,carbon-di-oxide.

NO, it is actually the function of the chlorosplasts.

The mitochondria provides energy for the cell.

Do the reactions of photosynthesis occur in the mitochondria?

No. Mitochondria carry out cellular respiration. Photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts.


Where do photosynthesis and cellular respiration occur in cell?

Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplast.Respiration occurs in mitochondria.


What organelle does photosynthesis and cellular respiration occur in?

Respiration occurs in two compartments - glycolysis in the cytoplasm and the TCA cycle and electron transport chain in the mitochondria. However, cells that are actively photosynthesising do not need to respire because ATP is synthesised in the chloroplast.


Does respiration occur in mitochondria or does photosynthesis?

Respiration take place in Mitochondria.Photosynthesis take place in chloroplast.


Does photosynthesis take place in the mitochondria?

No. In a eukaryote cell photosynthesis will only take place in chloroplasts, which are organellesin the cytoplasm.


Does cellular respiration occur in plants that also photosynthesize?

Yes it does as these plants contain mitochondria that put some of the glucose made by photosynthesis into the cellular respiration cycle in the mitochondria.


Does cellular respiration occur in chloroplast?

No, chloroplasts arn't even involved in respiration.


Where pothosynthesis and cellular respiration occur?

Photo synthesis and respiration is just a function inside our cells they are in chloroplast (photosynthesis) and mitochondria (respiration)


Why does a plant need chlorolst and the mitochondria?

Chloroplast is needed for photosynthesis. Mitochondria is needed for respiration


What structures are in the Mitochondria?

For photosynthesis the structures are chloroplast, mitochondria, ribosomes, and the vacuole, and for cellular structures are glucose, cytoplasm, and mitochondria.


Does the mitochondria carry enzymes for photosynthesis?

Enzymes for photosynthesis are in chloroplasts.Mitochondria are responsible for respiration.


What cellular organelle occurs in which photosynthesis?

Mitochondria
