Mitochondria are not natively part of an organism - animal or plant. They were a symbiotic invasion very early in evolution. They are living things, respire and consume energy, and have their own DNA.
The MtDNA as it is known, is constructed from maternal material, and thus it consists of your mother's MtDNA, and this genetic marker has been of great value in tracing lineage over evolutionary ranges.
But their importance is that they enhance the ATP energy producing reaction in the body.
[I understand that there is a 'native' ATP process available but much less efficient then that of the Mitochondria. But I'm not a biochemist. ]
What else can I help you with?
Does plantae have chloroplast or mitochondria?
ALL plant cells have chloroplast - Not ALL plant cells have chloroplasts. I'm actually studying this in my college Biology class right now. "Chloroplast is an organelle that specializes in photosyntheses.." Therefore cholorplast is found in plant cells that receive light. You won't however find chloroplast in plant cells underground (roots, bulbs, ect.) because light generally doesn't reach those cells. If somehow they become exposed to light though they may develop choloroplast. I hope that helps.
Do plants and animals have chloroplast and mitochondria?
No only plats have chloroplasts. Mitochondria are in both
Do all plants and animals have mitochondria?
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.
Are mitochondria found in plants cells animals cells or both?
Both animal and plant cells have mitochondria.
Is Stomata and mitochondria are two specialized cells found only in plants?
stomata are found only in plants cells, but mitochondria are in both plant and animal cells. remember, they both perform cellular respiration, which occurs in the mitochondria
Why do plant cell have chloroplast and animals do not?
Plants cells have chloroplasts because they need it for a process called photosynthesis. But both plant and animal cells have mitochondria. Animal cells can use the mitochondria to get energy that why they need chloroplast.
Shape of mitochondria and chloroplast?
The mitochondria and chloroplast are both complex cell organelles that are found in eukaryote cells. These are both oval in shape.

Are mitochondria found in plants cells animals cells or both?
Both animal and plant cells have mitochondria.
Does animal cells have mitochondria?
Plants and animals share many similarities and differences in the cells they have. Both plants and animals have mitochondria cells present.
Is Stomata and mitochondria are two specialized cells found only in plants?
stomata are found only in plants cells, but mitochondria are in both plant and animal cells. remember, they both perform cellular respiration, which occurs in the mitochondria
What contains mitochondria and chloroplast?
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.
What similarities do mitochondria and chloroplast?
They both present in plant cells, where they work together to capture and convert energy. That is it.
Do plants have mitochondria organelles?
yes, both eukaryotic plant and animal cells have mitochondria.
Is chloroplast present in both plant and animal cells?
only plants
