Heya...

Answer:

Mitochondria are known as the powerhouse of the cell they are organelles that act like a digestive system which take in nutrients break them down and create energy rich molecules for the salary biochemical process of the cell are known as cellular respiration many of the reaction involved in cellular respiration happens in the mitochondria . mitochondria are the working organelle that keep the Cell full of energy.

Mitochondria small organelle is protein free throughout the cell some cell has several thousands mitochondria while other have none.

#Hope its help!!

Mark my ans as brainliest if its helpful to u!!

Here is your answer! ❤

Mitochondria -

Mitochondrion, membrane-bound organelle found in the cytoplasm of almost all eukaryotic cells (cells with clearly defined nuclei), the primary function of which is to generate large quantities of energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Mitochondria are typically round to oval in shape and range in size from 0.5 to 10 μm. In addition to producing energy, mitochondria store calcium for cell signaling activities, generate heat, and mediate cell growth and death. The number of mitochondria per cell varies widely; for example, in humans, erythrocytes (red blood cells) do not contain any mitochondria, whereas liver cells and muscle cells may contain hundreds or even thousands. The only eukaryotic organism known to lack mitochondria is the oxymonad Monocercomonoides species. Mitochondria are unlike other cellular organelles in that they have two distinct membranes and a unique genome and reproduce by binary fission; these features indicate that mitochondria share an evolutionary past with prokaryotes (single-celled organisms).

Hope it helps you! ☺✌
