Yes; they both need mitochondria for cellular respiration.
Both animal and plant cells perform cellular respiration to convert food into energy (ATP), and mitochondria are the organelles responsible for this process. While plants also have chloroplasts for photosynthesis, they still require mitochondria to metabolize the products of photosynthesis and generate energy.

Chemosynthesis relies on chemical energy, typically from inorganic molecules, to produce organic compounds. This process is used by certain organisms, such as some bacteria, to create food in the absence of sunlight.

This suggestion aligns with the fact that chemosynthesis, which relies on chemical energy from inorganic compounds, is less efficient than photosynthesis, which harnesses the more abundant and powerful energy from sunlight. As a result, larger organisms typically rely on the more efficient process of photosynthesis for energy.
