Among the following, which cellular organelle contains circular DNA similar to that found in bacteria?
Correct answer: C. Chloroplast
- A. Ribosome
- B. Lysosome
- C. Chloroplast
- D. Nucleus
Explanation
Mitochondria and chloroplasts both are considered as semi autonomous organelles, as they have their own circular DNA and 70S ribosomes. Mitochondria are present in both plant and animal cells but chloroplast is present in autotrophic eukaryotes.

About Cell Structure and Function
Animal, plant, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are compared through their membranes, cell walls, nuclei and cytoplasmic organelles. The work includes the structures and functions of mitochondria, chloroplasts, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus and lysosomes, as well as chromosome organization and the distinction between chromatin and chromosomes.
