There is a theory that chloroplast and mitochondria were independent organisms. Since they were, they would have their own DNA. And it is true that they do. It is interesting that you get your mitochondria from only your mother. There are many studies have used mtDNA to trace the evolution and migration of human species, including when the common ancestor to modern humans and Neanderthals lived.

What do chloroplasts and mitochondria have other organelles lack?
their own DNA
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 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 do chloroplasta and mitochondria have that other organelles lack?
They have their own DNA.They also have 70s ribosomes.
What structure is found in prokaryotic cell?
Prokaryotic cells lack any membrane bound organelles such as a nucleus, mitochondria, lysosomes, chloroplasts, golgi apparatus, etc. These membrane bound organelles are only found in eukaryotic cells.
Does mitochondria lack a nucleus?
Yes, Mitochondria are organelles inside of Cells, which contain Nuclei.
Do mitochondria and chloroplasts lack DNA?
Of course not,they have DNA.So they can self replicate.
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 both chloroplasts and mitochondria lack genetic information in the form of DNA?
true :)
What are the characteristics of a bacterial cell?
Bacteria are prokaryotic, microscopic organisms whose single cells have neither a membrane-bounded nucleus nor other membrane-bounded organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts. The can be rod shaped (bacilli), spheres (cocci), or spiral shaped (spirochetes).
What do chloroplats and mitochondria have that the other organelles lack?
Their own set of genetic material still capable of coding for a few proteins which these organelles use. In a circular form that indicates their bacterial origins.
Do mitochondria and chloroplasts lack genetic information?
That is not true. They contain their own DNA
