Well, the primary function is ATP production (chemical energy source), why, or how they got them is a far bigger question, one popular theory is that organelles were at one point cells in their own right, which were consumed (or assimilated) by another carnivorous cell and over time these cells had a greater ability to survive, reproduce incorporate this new cell into it's cellular division and pass it onto it's daughter cells. This event occurred many many times to result in the modern cell
Yes all plants and animals have mitochondria because they have cells. Mitochondria helps the cells in animals and plants to produce energy that is essential for survival.
Yes. All eukaryotic cells have mitochondria.
Mitochondria are found in eukaryotic cells, including plants, animals, and fungi. Chloroplasts are specific to plant cells and some protists. Both organelles are involved in energy production - mitochondria in cellular respiration, and chloroplasts in photosynthesis.
All multicellular organisms have a Mitochondria including plant cells.
They do have mitochondria, though it is not as much of a power source for the plant - during the Daytime - , because chloroplasts do that job. There are mitochondria in all plant and animal Cells; otherwise the Cells would not be able to respire aerobically - during the Nighttime - , and they would obtain very little Atp from each glucose molecule. It is also found in the animal Cell, as well.
In the cells of all living things, the power plant of the living organisms cells are mitochondria. The mitochondria take sugar (glucose) and oxygen and turns it into energy. I hope this helped!

No, mitochondria are found only in eukaryotic cells. All animal cells. not single celled organisms not fungi
It is present in all living eukaryote cells.
Nearly all eukaryotic cells, including plants, contain Mitoochondria.
No. Other cells such as plant cells contain mitochondria. However, prokaryotic cells such as bacteria do not contain mitochondria and respiration instead occurs on infolds in the plasma membrane called mesosomes.
Yes all plants and animals have mitochondria because they have cells. Mitochondria helps the cells in animals and plants to produce energy that is essential for survival.
Yes. All eukaryotic cells have mitochondria.
In plants, respiration takes place in all living cells which contains mitochondria irrespective of the plant organs.
Yes, ribosomes are present in plant cells. They are in 4 parts of the plant cell. They are found in the cytoplasm, the surface of the endoplasmic reticulum, the mitochondria, and on chloroplasts.
They are energy generating organells.They are same in all cells
