Detailed explanation-1: -The primary function of mitochondria is to perform cellular respiration. When a cell respires, energy is produced in the form of ATP by mitochondria. These are often known as the powerhouse of the cell as they provide energy to the cell.
Detailed explanation-2: -The main organelle involved in respiration is the mitochondria. It’s known as the powerhouse of the cell due to the fact that 32 ATP are created from this organelle.
Detailed explanation-3: -Mitochondria Mitochondria are membrane-bound cell organelles (mitochondrion, singular) that generate most of the chemical energy needed to power the cell’s biochemical reactions. Chemical energy produced by the mitochondria is stored in a small molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
Detailed explanation-4: -Summary. Mitochondria are organelles whose membranes are specialized for aerobic respiration.
Detailed explanation-5: -Mitochondria are essential organelles for cell metabolism, growth, and function. Mitochondria in lung cells have important roles in regulating surfactant production, mucociliary function, mucus secretion, senescence, immunologic defense, and regeneration.
