Difference between Mitochondria and Chloroplasts | Cell Organelles

The upcoming discussion will update you about the differences between Mitochondria and Chloroplasts. Difference # Mitochondria: 1. They are colourless cell organelles. 2. Mitochondria are found in all types of aerobic cells, both plants and animals. 3. They are generally cylindrical in outline. 4. Their inner membrane is thrown up into folds called cristae. 5. Cristae remain in contact with [...]

Types of Micro-Bodies (With Diagram) | Cell Organelles

The following points highlight the two types of micro-bodies. The types are: 1. Peroxisomes 2. Glyoxysomes. Micro-Bodies: Type # 1. Peroxisomes: They are micro bodies which contain enzymes for peroxide biosynthe­sis. Peroxisomes were discovered by De Duve (1965) with the help of fractionation technique. The term was coined by De Duve in 1969. Peroxisomes are found in both plant and [...]
