The plasma membrane is the phospholipid bilayer that is defines the outer border of the cell. All of the organelles (which are also membrane bounds) are contained within the boundaries of the plasma membrane.

The double membrane organelle like chloroplast and mitochondria have usually the function related to ATP generation in which there is movement of electrons in the membrane and the the proton is pumped through the membrane. thus they are somewhat autonomous.

The single membrane organelles are not known to generate ATP by their own and thus they are not autonomous at all.

What is the main difference between a eukaryotes and prokaryotes?

the main difference is that the prokaryotic cell lacks definite nucleus while a eukaryotic cell contains a well defined nucleus with double membrane.besides prokaryotic cell also lacks membrane bounded organelles while a eukaryotic cell contains all membrane bounded organelles like mitochondria,endoplasmic reticulum etc


Does bacteria have a membrane enclosed organelles?

Yes they do have but only non-membrane bounded or single membrane bounded, but never double membrane bounded.

What is the purpose or usefulness of organelles that have a double membrane?

Mitochondria (producing cell energy), and chloroplast (photosyntesis) are the organelles with double membrane. Endosymbiotic theory - during evolution smaller prokaryots were consumed by bigger cells, and developed protective coat, hence the double membrane


Surrounded by double layer of memberane with pore?

The mitochondria and the chloroplast are organelles that have a double membrane.


Does a Peroxisome have a double membrane?

No lysosomes do not have double membrane . They are single membrane organells .


Is it true that Mitochondria are double membrane organelles.?

No,it is not the only organelle. Many other organelles have double membranes. Ex: Chloroplast,lysosoem,vacuole etc


What is the difference between eukaryiotic cells and prokaryiotic cells?

The primary distinction between these two types of organisms is that eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus and prokaryotic cells do not. The nucleus is where eukaryotes store their genetic information. In prokaryotes, DNA is bundled together in the nucleoid region, but it is not stored within a membrane-bound nucleus. The nucleus is only one of many membrane-bound organelles in eukaryotes. Prokaryotes, on the other hand, have no membrane-bound organelles. Another important difference is the DNA structure. Eukaryote DNA consists of multiple molecules of double-stranded linear DNA, while that of prokaryotes is double-stranded and circular. From Creative Biogene.


What do organelle do not have?

There are so many different types of organelles. This therefore means that the organelles do not have various things depending on the particular type. Most organelles do not have a double membrane.


What do the cell membrane and the nuclear membrane have in common?

They are both double membraned / a double unit membrane


Do plant cells have membrane bound organelle?

Yes, cells have organelles. The organelles are like the organs of the cell.


What are the three double membrane organelles contained inside a cell?

The nuclear envelope, the mitochondria and the chloroplasts in plants.
