Answer:
The Similarity between Mitochondria and Plastids is that both of them have their own DNA(Deoxyribonucleic Acid) and Ribosomes (synthesizes proteins). Therefore they are also known as semi-autonomous or partly dependent cell organelles.
Plastids are known as the kitchen of the cell because the food of the plants is produced by the process of photosynthesis in the chloroplasts only which is a type of plastid with green pigments.
