Mitochondria is one of the cell organelle present both in plants and animals.
It is slipper like structure having finger like projections .
It is known as the powerhouse of a cell.
The discovery of mitochondria in general came in 1886 when Richard Altman, a cytologist, identified the organelles using a dye technique, and dubbed them “bioblasts."
He postulated that the structures were the basic units of cellular activity.
Carl Benda, in 1898, coined the term mitochondria.


Thanks.
