A) ATP is only synthesized only in mitochondria.

PLEASE MARK THE ANSWER AS BRAINLIEST.


atifpetarian: atp is not only synthesized in mitochodria it can also be synthesized in cytoplasm even it can also synthesized in chloroplast (light reaction)
daksh1181: but as it is light reaction so I think that is the difference
atifpetarian: I don't think so bro !! . what do you think about D option ? because NADP is found where anabolic reactions take place and that is only in Chloroplast. and in mitochodria catabolic reactions accur. so isn't it the difference ?
daksh1181: Nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase transfers the hydrogen between NAD(P)H and NAD(P)+, and is found in eukaryotic mitochondria and many bacteria. See google search
atifpetarian: in general, NAD is used in catabolic reactions while NADP is used in anabolic reactions. And hence, in mitochondria where respiration (a sequence of catabolic reactions) takes place, NAD is used and in chloroplasts where photosynthesis (a sequence of anabolic reactions) takes place, NADP is used.  (reference: researchgate) and what you are saying that maybe an exception. but in general that is the case.
daksh1181: ok
daksh1181: I am sorry
daksh1181: To post the answer without knowing completely
atifpetarian: it's OK bro ! no problem. but iam still not sure which is the correct option.

A) atp has synthesised only in mitochondrion

atifpetarian: no ! correct option is D. I just asked my biology teacher.
