Biology Question on Cell structure and organelles
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Mitochondria and chloroplasts both double membranes bound organelles.
Statement II: Inner membrane of mitochondria is relatively less permeable, as compared chloroplast. I
In the light of the above statements, choose the mis appropriate answer from the options given below
Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
Solution
- Statement I is correct : Both mitochondria and chloroplasts are double-membrane bound organelles.
- Statement II is incorrect : The inner membrane of mitochondria is relatively more perme able compared to the inner membrane of chloroplasts, which is more selectively permeable.
Thus, the correct answer is: Statement I is correct, Statement II is incorrect.
