Which two structures are involved in energy production on the cellular level?
A. chloroplasts and mitochondria
B. mitochondria and Golgi bodies
C. Golgi bodies and chloroplasts
D. microtubules and mitochondria

Respuesta :

I believe the answer is A. Mitochondria are the 'power houses' of the animal cell, synthesizing ATP for energy. Chloroplasts do the same thing in plant cells.

Answer:

A. chloroplasts and mitochondria

Explanation:

Chloroplasts are the site for the production of ATP through photophosphorylation during light reactions of photosynthesis. The electrons from PS II are funneled into the electron transport chain followed by the generation of proton motive force to drive the ATP synthesis.  

Mitochondria are also site for the ATP production through oxidative phosphorylation. NADH and FADH2 from glycolysis and Kreb's cycle enter the electron transport chain present in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Oxidation of these reducing powers is coupled with the generation of proton motive force to drive the ATP synthesis.
