Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Name the two organelles responsible for energy transformation in the cell
A
Ribosomes;chloroplasts
B
chloroplasts;Mitochondria
C
mitochondria;cell wall
D
chloroplasts;ribosomes
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In mitochondria the energy is stored and used to produce ATP by the process of oxidative phosphorylation. The energy captured and used in the chloroplast is to produce ATP by photophosphorylation. Therefore the two cell organelles which are involved in energy transformation reactions are chloroplast and mitochondria.

Detailed explanation-2: -Thus, two cell organelles involved in energy transformation reactions are chloroplast and mitochondria.

Detailed explanation-3: -In plant cells, chloroplasts convert light energy into chemical energy, and mitochondria consume the chemical energy to produce ATP. The optimal carbon fixation and plant growth require these two energy-transforming organelles to perform strictly coordinated actions.

Detailed explanation-4: -How do mitochondria convert energy? The machinery that the mitochondria use to convert energy is called the electron transport chain. Mitochondria convert chemical energy, in the form of a chemical called adenosine triphosphate or ATP for short. ATP is an energy currency that every cell in our body can use.
