Popularly known as the “Powerhouse of the cell,” mitochondria (singular: mitochondrion) are a double-membrane-bound organelle found in most of the eukaryotic organisms. They are found inside the cytoplasm and essentially functions as the cell’s digestive system.

They play a major role in breaking down the nutrients and generating energy-rich molecules for the cell. Many of the biochemical reactions involved in cellular respiration take place within the mitochondria. The term ‘mitochondrion’ is derived from the Greek words “mitos” and “chondrion” which means “thread” and “granules-like” respectively. It was first described by a German pathologist named Richard Altmann in the year 1890.
