Verified step by step guidance

Identify the primary function of each organelle listed in the options. Mitochondria are known for producing ATP through cellular respiration, while chloroplasts are involved in photosynthesis, converting light energy into chemical energy.

Understand that cellular energy in eukaryotic cells is primarily produced through two processes: cellular respiration and photosynthesis.

Recognize that mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell, responsible for generating ATP, the energy currency of the cell, through the process of oxidative phosphorylation.

Acknowledge that chloroplasts are found in plant cells and some protists, where they capture light energy and convert it into chemical energy through photosynthesis.

Conclude that the two organelles responsible for producing cellular energy in eukaryotic cells are mitochondria and chloroplasts, as they are directly involved in the processes of cellular respiration and photosynthesis, respectively.
