Which of the following is true of the mitochondria
|
breaks down fatty acids |
||
|
single membrane |
||
|
has its own dna |
||
|
converts chemical energy into a carbohydrate using sunlight energy |
Answer: has its own DNA
Explanation: Mitochondria has its own DNA called as mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA. It is circular and contains around 16,000 DNA base pairs.
- Following are the various components it has or it forms:
| Genes | 37 |
| Proteins formed | 13 |
| tRNA (transfer RNA) | 22 |
| rRNA (ribosomal RNA) | 2 |
Incorrect options:
Option 1: breaks down of fatty acid is down by peroxisomes. Mitochondria is only involved in oxidation of fatty acids.
Option 2: It is a double membrane structure that is made up of inner membrane, intermembrane space and an outer membrane.
Option 4: Chloroplast is the organelle which is
involved in the conversion of chemical energy into a carbohydrate
using sunlight energy via photosynthesis. Mitochondria is the one
that generates energy in the form of ATP.
