It is told that mitochondria were surviveing of there own and a bacteria engulfed in for this reason it is having two membrane one of its own and the second of the bacteria which engulfed it. Is this statement true as all the organelles inside a eukaryotic cell are double membraned. So how it is proved that mitocondriya and plastids can survive of their own?

Dear student,
Mitochondria is a double-membraned cell organelle which is present in the cytoplasm. It has its own genetic material. It produces ATP, which are the energy-rich molecules. ATP is the currency of energy in living systems.
Although most of a cell's DNA is contained in the cell nucleus, the mitochondrion has its own independent genome that shows substantial similarity to bacterial genomes
Plastids are double-membrane organelle which are found in the cells of plants and algae. Plastids are responsible for manufacturing and storing of food. These often contains pigments that are used in photosynthesis and different types of pigments that can change the color of the cell.
Regards
