Question

Are the DNA in the chloroplasts and Mitochondria in the form of chromosomes?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Both chloroplast and mitochondria were once independent free living organisms and later on became lodged in eukaryotic cells as endosymbionts. This hypothesis is supported by many evidences example both of these organelles are surrounded by double membranes, have their own DNA which is circular like prokaryotic chromosome, have their own ribosomes which are 70S type like prokaryotic ribosomes and are not dependent on nucleus for their multiplication but can increase in number by fission like bacteria.

So, the correct answer is 'Mitochondria and chloroplast both originated as independent free living organisms'
