What do mitochondria and chloroplast have in common?

Answer 1

Chloroplasts and mitochondria both contain their own bits of DNA so they can reproduce by themselves.

Both have double membranes

They can self replicate by binary fission (which is also how bacteria reproduces)

Both of them have circular DNA.

They have 70s ribosomes.

It is theorized that those are the two organelles that took part in the endosymbiotic theory. This is because they both have their own DNA, divide separately from the cell, and look very similar to bacterias. According to the theory, they were once free living organisms that started a mutualism with an early eukaryotic cell, and they've been inseparable ever since.

Answer 2

Mitochondria and chloroplasts are both organelles found in eukaryotic cells that are involved in energy production. Mitochondria are known as the "powerhouses" of the cell, producing ATP through cellular respiration, while chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis, converting light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose. Both organelles have their own DNA and reproduce independently from the cell through a process called fission.

Answer 3

They are very similar.They have many similar components like ribosomes,DNA etc.
