what is mitochondria

 \huge \sf\blue{\colorbox{pink}{Answer}}

The mitochondrion is a double membrane-bound organelle found in most eukaryotic organisms. Some cells in some multicellular organisms lack mitochondria. A number of unicellular organisms, such as microsporidia, parabasalids, and diplomonads, have reduced or transformed their mitochondria into other structures.

  • Mitochondria are membrane-bound organelles present in the cytoplasm of all eukaryotic cells.

  • They are responsible for producing Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the main energy currency of the cell.

  • The mitochondrion is a double-membraned, rod-shaped structure found in both plant and animal cell.

  • Its size ranges from 0.5 to 1.0 micrometre in diameter.

  • The structure comprises an outer membrane, an inner membrane, and a gel-like material called the matrix.

  • The outer membrane and the inner membrane are made of proteins and phospholipid layers separated by the intermembrane space.
