What chloroplast and mitochondria contain their own genetic information in form of?
Both chloroplasts and mitochondria have their own sets of chromosomes composed of DNA.
Do both chloroplasts and mitochondria lack genetic information in the form of DNA?
true :)
What do chloroplasts and mitochondria form with their own genetic information?
No. they actually have their own dna, independent of the rest of the cell.
Which organelles outside the cell nucleus contain genetic information?
Both the mitochondria and chloroplasts (in plants) of eukaryotic cells contain their own genetic information. This is leftover from what is thought to be a symbiosis in early eukaryotic cells. It is assumed that these organelles were originally completely separate organisms, which found their way into larger organisms' cells due to the advantageous symbiotic relationship they could offer each other. Having compartments in cells turned out to be a massive evolutionary advantage, as it meant more complex, more specialised and more efficient reactions could take place in different organelles, where the conditions could be varied to suit the enzymes. Although much of the DNA (genetic material) that was originally in these organelles has now found its way into the host cell's nucleus with the rest of the cell's DNA, there is some still left in the organelles. Indeed, they still produce a few proteins themselves using this genetic material, but they also require the other proteins that are synthesised in the rest of the eukaryotic cell.
Which orgenell beside nucleus contain genetic material?
Mitochondrian in animals and chloroplasts in vegetables.
Do mitochondria and chloroplasts lack genetic information?
That is not true. They contain their own DNA
2 organelles that contain thereown genetic material?
Chloroplasts in plant cells and mitochondria in animal cells contain their own mitochondria
What chloroplast and mitochondria contain their own genetic information in form of?
Both chloroplasts and mitochondria have their own sets of chromosomes composed of DNA.
Do both chloroplasts and mitochondria lack genetic information in the form of DNA?
true :)
What is the two organelles that contain their own genetic material?
Mitochondria and chloroplasts. The question asks for organelles with their OWN genetic material. The material from the nucleus already belongs to the cell. Those two evolved from symbiotic prokaryotes and maintain their own DNA.
What do chloroplasts and mitochondria form with their own genetic information?
No. they actually have their own dna, independent of the rest of the cell.
Which are the two organelles having their own genetic material. What is their significance?
Nucleus & Mitochondria are the two organelles having their own genetic material.

What organelle contains genetic information?
The cell nucleus and the mitochondria contain genetic information in the form of DNA.
Does mitochondira and choloroplasts contain genetic material?
yes both the mitochondria and choloroplasts contain genetic material
Where is genetic material located in a cell?
For an eukaryotic cell (e.g. human cell), it is found in the nucleus. Genetic material is not bound by membrane in prokaryotic cells (e.g. bateria) but is found in a region called the nucleoid. For an eukaryotic cell, some genetic material can also be found inside the mitochondria and chloroplasts.
Both plant and animal cells have mitochondria because they both?
Chloroplasts and mitochondria are similar in that they both maintain some autonomy from the cell. They both contain their own genetic material separate from the nucleus of the cell. This has lead to the endosymbiotic theory - which states that chloroplasts and mitochondria were once unicellular organisms engulfed by and then incorporated into another cell.
