Chloroplasts and mitochondria are known to generate ATP. Aside from this, there are still a number of similarities between these two organelles. Both organelles contain DNA apart from their cells' nuclear DNA. Despite having related functions (i.e. ATP generation), both can still be found in plant cells. However, only the mitochondria are present in animal cells.
How is it possible to contrast chloroplasts and mitochondria?
A. whether the organelle contains its own DNA
B. whether the organelle converts solar energy into cellular energy
C. whether the organelle is found in plant cells
D. whether the organelle has multiple membranes
E. whether the organelle has a large internal surface area.
