Question
what is responsible for producing energy in both plant and animal cells?
a) cytoplasm
b) nucleus
c) mitochondria
d) bacteria
Mitochondria are known as the power - houses of the cell. They carry out cellular respiration, which produces energy (ATP) in both plant and animal cells. Cytoplasm is the jelly - like substance where many cellular processes occur but not the main energy - producing site. The nucleus contains genetic material and controls cell activities but not energy production. Bacteria are separate organisms and not a part of the cell structure for energy production in plant and animal cells.
