Question

what is the mitochondria​

Answer 1

Answer:

A mitochondrion is a double-membrane-bound organelle found in most eukaryotic organisms. Mitochondria generate most of the cell's supply of adenosine triphosphate, used as a source of chemical energy. They were first discovered by Albert von Kölliker in 1880 in the voluntary muscles of insects.

Answer 2

Mitochondria :

• Mitochondria is a double-membrane-bound organelle found in almost eukaryotic organisms.
• Mitochondria generate most of the cell's supply of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), used as a source of (chemical) energy.
• Mitochondrias are found outside the nucleus, produce energy for the cell through cellular respiration, and are rich in fats, proteins, and enzymes.

Function of the mitochondria :

• They help to turn the energy we taken from the food into energy, that the cell can use.
• But, there is more to mitochondria than energy production.
• Present in nearly all types of human cell, mitochondria are crucial to our survival.
• They generate the majority of our adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy currency of the cell.
• These mutations are can either be spontaneous or inherited.
• When mitochondria stop functioning, the cell they are is in starved of energy.
• So, depending on the type of cell, symptoms can differ widely.
• As a general rule, cells that need the largest amounts of energy, such as heart muscle cells and nerves, are affected the most by faulty mitochondria.
