MAJOR Photosynthesis- Changes solar energy into chemical energy
Stroma- The place where starches and sugars are created. Thylakoids- Site of Photosynthesis Granum- Stack of Thylakoids Stromal Lamellae- Connect the Grana
MAJOR Cellular respiration- the metabolic process that generates ATP by extracting energy from sugars, fats and other fuels with the help of oxygen
Porins- Integral proteins found on the Outer Membrane. They allow molecules that are 5000 Daltons or less to freely diffuse across the cell. Cristae- Expands the surface area within the cell. Matrix- Contains many different enzymes and mitochondrial DNA and ribosomes. They catalyze some steps of cellular respiration.

CHLOROPLASTSMITOCHONDRIA Sites of photosynthesis In plants cells Sites of cellular respiration In all eukaryotic cells (plants, animals, fungi)
Both the mitochondria and the chloroplasts work independently, the cells depend on these for food and energy.
