Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Mitochondria: the energy converters Mitochondria, using oxygen available within the cell convert chemical energy from food in the cell to energy in a form usable to the host cell. The process is called oxidative phosphorylation and it happens inside mitochondria.

Detailed explanation-3: -The connections between the two organelles in biogenesis, degradation, and fission. Mitochondria participate in the formation of peroxisomes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Mitochondria’s primary function is to produce energy through the process of oxidative phosphorylation. Besides this, it is responsible for regulating the metabolic activity of the cell. It also promotes cell multiplication and cell growth. Mitochondria also detox ammonia in the liver cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -Mitochondria is responsible for the production of energy in the cell. Mitochondria is also known as the powerhouse of the cell. It has a double membrane-bound structure. They are found inside the cytoplasm of the cell and synthesize energy in the form of ATP molecules.
