No, plants do not have mitochondria. Instead, plants have a different organelle called chloroplasts that are responsible for photosynthesis, which is the process of converting sunlight into energy.

Cell's power plants?
The power plants in cells are called mitochondria. Mitochondria are responsible for producing the majority of the cell's energy through a process known as cellular respiration. This energy is stored in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and is used for various cellular functions.
What are examples of mitochondria and chloroplasts?
Examples of mitochondria include liver cells and muscle cells, which require a lot of energy and therefore have a high number of mitochondria. Examples of chloroplasts include leaf cells in plants, where photosynthesis occurs to convert sunlight into energy.
What organelle carries out cellular respiration in plants?
Mitochondria carry out cellular respiration in plants, where glucose is broken down to produce energy for the cell in the form of ATP. This process involves the citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain within the mitochondria.
Which organelles in plants and animals are responsible for energy production?
In plants, energy production occurs in the chloroplasts through the process of photosynthesis. In animals, energy production takes place in the mitochondria through cellular respiration.
Would you expect to find mitochondria in both plants and animal cells?
Yes, mitochondria are found in both plant and animal cells. They are often referred to as the powerhouse of the cell because they generate energy in the form of ATP through the process of cellular respiration.
Do photosynthetic plants have mitochondria and chloroplasts?
Almost all plants have mitochondria. Plants use these mitochondria to release the energy from the glucose that is stored inside them (The glucose is obtained via Photosynthesis).
What are the cells power plants?
It is an organelle called the mitochondria
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.
Is mitochondria located in plants or animal cells?
Plants
Are mitochondria in a plant or animal?
Mitochondria are located in both plants and animals.
Do they both have mitochondria?
If you mean animals and plants by both.Yes,both have mitochondria
Do plants and animlas have mitochondria?
Yes,they have mitochondria in cells.It is common to both.
In plants mitochondria use light energy to make sugar?
No it is not mitochondria. It is the chloroplast
Is mitochondria animal or plant?
Mitochondria are in both plants and animals.Mitochondria are typical organells.
Do cell contains mitochondria?
Plants are also eukaryotic organisms.So they have mitochondria for respiration.
Is mitochondria a plant or animal?
Mitochondria are in both plants and animals.Mitochondria are typical organells.
Do plants and animals have chloroplast and mitochondria?
No only plats have chloroplasts. Mitochondria are in both
