Is their any kind of cellular organelle that has its own DNA?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm pretty sure all organelles have their own DNA

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Chloroplasts, Nucleus, and Mitochondrion.

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Mitochondria and Chloroplast are two autonomous cellular organelle which have their own DNA

OpenStudy (quickstudent):

Well, I thought that way, too, but look what my school gave as a question: Which of these cellular organelles have their own DNA? Answer chloroplast nucleus mitochondrion all of these This is REALLY confusing!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its Mitochondrion in animals and Chloroplast in plants its D

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Apart from these two Nucleus is obvious one.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I had that question before- the answer I gave was all of them, and I got it right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

100% its All of these :D

OpenStudy (quickstudent):

OK, well I will answer that, but can I also get an explanation?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Nucleus is the head of the cell. It contains all the necessary genetic material required for the regulation of all the cellular activity. Apart from it mitochondria and chloroplast also contain single stranded DNA.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup What do you want to know ? , all of three are self-replicating organelle because they have their own DNA .

OpenStudy (abhisar):

\(\color{blue}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @nincompoop the powerhouse of the cell has its own organelle :P \(\color{blue}{\text{End of Quote}}\) What this means ?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

It is supposed that chloroplast and mitochondria were independent prokaryotic organisms before they established symbiotic relationship with the cell.

OpenStudy (abhisar):

u should correct ur statement i.e the powerhouse of the cell has its own ORGANELLE

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

powerhouse of the cell has its own DNA HAHA

OpenStudy (abhisar):
