It is the powerhouse of cell.
They are organelles that act like a digestive system which takes in nutrients, breaks them down, and creates energy rich molecules for the cell.
The most prominent roles of mitochondria are to produce the energy currency of the cell, ATP (i.e., phosphorylation of ADP), through respiration and to regulate cellular metabolism.
