Mitochondria is called the powerhouse of the cell because it releases energy required for various chemical activities needed for life in the form of ATP(Adenosine triphosphate) molecules. ATP is known as the energy currency of the cell. The body uses energy stored in ATP for making new chemical compounds and for mechanical work.
The similarities are :
1)They both are bounded with double membrane.
2)They have their own DNA and ribosomes.
3)Both can produce their own copies by division.
