The nucleus, chloroplast, and mitochondria have in common is that they are membrane-bound organelles in a cell.
Membrane. Mitochondria and chloroplasts are enveloped in two membranes, while bacteria only have one. The inner membrane of mitochondria and chloroplasts resembles the bacterial membrane, while the outer membrane is thought to be part of the original host cell membrane.his process of replication is called binary fission and also occurs in bacteria. Replication by mitochondria and chloroplasts is independent of the host cell's replication cycle. Plant and animal cells replicate by a complex process called mitosis or meiosis.
