Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
My main goal is to produce a lot of ATP energy.
A
Chloroplast
B
Mitochondria
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that uses glucose to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), an organic compound the body can use for energy. One molecule of glucose can produce a net of 30-32 ATP.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hence, the two powerhouses of plant cells, chloroplasts and mitochondria, coordinate to generate adequate ATP in plants to meet energy demands of various anabolic processes (Khlyntseva et al., 2009).

Detailed explanation-3: -chloroplast, structure within the cells of plants and green algae that is the site of photosynthesis, the process by which light energy is converted to chemical energy, resulting in the production of oxygen and energy-rich organic compounds.
