Q. Which of the following cell organelle is present in both plant and animal cell?
Answer:
Mitochondria
Notes: Plant and animal cells both have mitochondria in the cytoplasm. Commonly referred to as powerhouse of the cell, mitochondria are crucial to convert foods into usable forms of energy (adenosine triphosphate or ATP). This organelle also contains deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), hence, plays an important role in transmission of genetic characters from parents to the offspring.
