Question

which organelle should be listed under "both" in the diagram plants and animals ? A. Centriule B. Mitochondrion C. Chloroplast D. Cell wall

Answer 1

B. Mitochondrion. Centriole is unique to animal cells and is used in cell division. Chloroplast and Cell wall are unique to plants cells, together with permanent vacuole. Both have mitochondrion, where energy is released through respiration.

Answer 2

The correct answer would be B. Mitochondria.

The mitochondrion is a double-membrane bound structure present in both animals as well as plant cells.

It is the major organelle associated with cellular (aerobic) respiration.

It is also called as the powerhouse of the cells as it produces ATP or energy required by the cells to perform all the metabolic processes.
