Nah, mitochondria are all about making ATP, not photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are the real MVPs for that.

Photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts, the green powerhouses of plant cells. Mitochondria focus on turning that energy into ATP!

Nah, photosynthesis goes down in the chloroplasts. Mitochondria are more into breaking down glucose, not making it!
