Question

why are mitochondria called powerhouse of the cell.give three similarities and one difference between mitochondria and plastid​

Answer 1

Answer:

Mitochondria is known as powerhouse of the cell because it creates energy for the cell. It releases energy in the form of ATP molecules.

similarities of mitochondria and plastid​s :-  1)  Mitochondria and Plastids both are double membraned structure.

2) They both have their own DNA and ribosomes of their own.

3) They both can be said as the kitchen of the cell. One gives energy by cellular respiration and other by food storage. Difference —Mitochondria lack pigments whereas plastid have it.

difference between mitochondria and plastid​:-

 Mitochondria                                         Plastids

1) Found in all eukaryotic cells           1)  Found in only plant cells

Produces ATP                             Produces glucose and stores it as starch                                                                        

2) The main function is cell

respiration                                        2) Main organelle for photosynthesis

3) Smaller in size                               3)    Comparatively larger in size

4) Pigments are absent                     4)   Pigments are present
