No, mitochondria have their own DNA separate from the nuclear DNA found in the cell. This DNA encodes for some of the proteins needed for mitochondrial function. Chloroplasts also have their own DNA, containing genes that code for some chloroplast-specific proteins.

What chloroplast and mitochondria contain their own genetic information in form of?
Both chloroplasts and mitochondria have their own sets of chromosomes composed of DNA.
What do both chloroplast and mitochondria have the same?
Both chloroplasts and mitochondria have double membranes and their own DNA.
Why must plant cells have both mitochondria and chloroplasts?
Plants need both mitochondria and chloroplasts to maintain a healthy plant. The mitochondria power the plant when the chlorophyll is stunted by lack of sunlight.
Do plants and animals have chloroplast and mitochondria?
No only plats have chloroplasts. Mitochondria are in both
Do plant cell have chloroplasts and mitochondria?
yes they have both but animal cells do not have chloroplasts
What chloroplast and mitochondria contain their own genetic information in form of?
Both chloroplasts and mitochondria have their own sets of chromosomes composed of DNA.
Both chloroplasts and mitochondria are enclosed by 2 envelope?
yes both chloroplasts and mitochondria are both enclosed by two envelope membrains.
What do both chloroplast and mitochondria have the same?
Both chloroplasts and mitochondria have double membranes and their own DNA.
What is the two organelles that contain their own genetic material?
Mitochondria and chloroplasts. The question asks for organelles with their OWN genetic material. The material from the nucleus already belongs to the cell. Those two evolved from symbiotic prokaryotes and maintain their own DNA.
Why must plant cells have both mitochondria and chloroplasts?
Plants need both mitochondria and chloroplasts to maintain a healthy plant. The mitochondria power the plant when the chlorophyll is stunted by lack of sunlight.
Do plants and animals have chloroplast and mitochondria?
No only plats have chloroplasts. Mitochondria are in both
Do plant cell have chloroplasts and mitochondria?
yes they have both but animal cells do not have chloroplasts
What organelle has both inner and outer membrane?
Both mitochondria and chloroplasts
What are factw about mitochondria and chloroplasts constitution support for the endosymbiont theorym?
There are three characteristics of mitochondria and chloroplasts that support this theory. First, both mitochondria and chloroplasts have two membranes surrounding them. Second, like prokaryotes, mitochondria and chloroplasts contain ribosomes, as well as a circular DNA molecules attached to their inner membranes. Third, mitochondria and chloroplasts are autonomous.
How are chloroplast like mitochondria?
Chloroplasts and mitochondria both supply energy to the cell.
What is the manufacturers of the cell?
Mitochondria in animal Cells, and within both mitochondria and chloroplasts in plant Cells.
What are the similarities between mitochondria an chloroplast?
Both mitochondria and chloroplasts are organelles. Mitochondria are used in cellular respiration and chloroplasts are used in photosynthesis. Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are opposite processes. Both are believed to have evolved from a living single celled bacteria that was engulfed by an early form of a plant or animal cell. Therefore, both mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own DNA. Furthermore, they both have free ribosomes. NOTE! they both DO NOT have 2 membranes. chloroplasts have 3 membranes
