Detailed explanation-1: -Chemical energy produced by the mitochondria is stored in a small molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

Detailed explanation-2: -The faster they move, the more energy is stored. It takes energy to get an object moving, and energy is released when an object slows down. Wind is an example of motion energy.

Detailed explanation-3: -Although the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and its special form sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) in muscle cells is considered to be the main calcium storage organelle [18, 19], the mitochondria also play a key function of absorption and storage of calcium ions [20].

Detailed explanation-4: -Mitochondria play a critical role in the generation of metabolic energy in eukaryotic cells. As reviewed in Chapter 2, they are responsible for most of the useful energy derived from the breakdown of carbohydrates and fatty acids, which is converted to ATP by the process of oxidative phosphorylation.

Detailed explanation-5: -Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell which produces and stores energy in the form of ATP. ATP or adenosine triphosphate, a complex molecule that contains the nucleoside adenosine linked to three phosphates. ATP is used by all the organism as their primary source of energy.
