does archaea have mitochondria
There are many mitochondria within one single eukaryotic cell. Plants (also EUkaryotes) have taken up chloroplasts (which also used to be free-living prokaryotes) as well as mitochondira. Chloroplasts turn photons into energy. Archaea don't have mitochondrions in them-they make energy in other ways.here are currently 3 domains-Prokaryota, Eukaryota and Archaea. The prokaryotes are best known as bacteria. The Eukaryotes are what you and I are made of, what every mammal, bird, fish, insect, fungus, plant...(I'm no zoologist but the list does go on!) is made of. Don't worry about the Archea 'til you get to Uni!
