ATP synthesis in both chloroplasts and mitochondria involves a process called chemiosmosis. In this process, a proton gradient is established across the membrane, driven by the electron transport chain. As protons flow back across the membrane through ATP synthase, the energy released is used to convert ADP and inorganic phosphate into ATP. This mechanism is vital for energy production in both photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
The chemiosmotic theory explains ATP synthesis in both chloroplasts and mitochondria. This theory states that ATP is generated through the movement of protons across a membrane, creating a proton gradient that drives the synthesis of ATP by ATP synthase. In chloroplasts, this process occurs in the thylakoid membrane during photosynthesis, whereas in mitochondria, it occurs in the inner mitochondrial membrane during cellular respiration.
Chloroplasts are the organelles in plants that help them get their energy through the process of photosynthesis.
Chloroplast is needed for photosynthesis. Mitochondria is needed for respiration
Mitochondria and chloroplasts divide through a process called binary fission, which is similar to bacterial cell division. This involves the duplication of their DNA, followed by the elongation of the organelle and the formation of a septum that eventually separates the two daughter organelles. This method of division reflects their evolutionary origin as prokaryotic organisms that were engulfed by ancestral eukaryotic cells. Both organelles are semi-autonomous, meaning they have their own DNA and machinery for protein synthesis, enabling them to replicate independently of the cell cycle.
No,they do not have.Only plants and algae have.
Well, I know that in mitochondria, protons are pumped from the matrix to the intermembrane space; however, in chloroplasts, protons are pumped from the stroma to the thykaloid space.I am not sure if that is the only difference, though ^^'
Chemiosmosis (involves the pumping of protons through special channels in the membranes of mitochondria from the inner to the outer compartment. The pumping establishes a proton gradient).
Proteins are made in the mitochondria through a process called protein synthesis. This process involves the mitochondria using instructions from DNA to assemble amino acids into proteins. The mitochondria have their own set of ribosomes and transfer RNA molecules that help in this process.

No. photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts containing chlorophyll. our cells have mitochondria but not chloroplasts. Therefore, we can't photosynthesize as plants do.
Go for 4: chloroplasts.The synthesis of sugars from inorganic compounds (carbon dioxide and water) requires energy, and that energy is, in plants, in the form of light. Both the conversion of light energy into chemical energy and the synthesis (building) of sugars from smaller molecules take place in chloroplasts.
Mitochondria= respiration-energy+o2 Chloroplasts=photosynthesis-food - energy

it occurs in chloroplasts and mitochondria as well.

Chloroplasts release oxygen during the process of photosynthesis. They contain chlorophyll, which captures sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.
