Mitochondria -

Turning on the Powerhouse.

  • Mitochondria are rod-shaped organelles that are considered as the power generators of the cell

  • They convert oxygen and nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

  • ATP is the chemical energy that is "currency" of the cell that powers the cell's metabolic activities.

  • Mitochondria are known as the powerhouses of the cell.

  • They are organelles that act like a digestive system which takes in nutrients then breaks them down and thereafter creates energy rich molecules for the cell.

☑️Mitochondria are tiny organelles inside cells that are involved in releasing energy from food.

◾️ This process is known as cellular respiration.

◾️It is for this reason that mitochondria are often referred to as the powerhouses of the cell.
