CELL RESPIRATION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which is an organelle that perform cellular respiration and is paired with its correct function?
A
Mitochondria-converts energy found in glucose into energy to use by the cell
B
Chloroplast-converts chemical energy into light energy
C
Chloroplast-converts light energy into chemical energy
D
Mitochondria-converts cellular energy into glucose chemical energy
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Mitochondria, cellular organelles of respiration and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production, are found in almost all eukaryotic cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Which is an organelle that performs cellular respiration and is paired with its correct function? Mitochondrion: converts energy found in glucose into energy for use by the cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -What organelle releases energy for metabolic activity in cells? Explanation: Mitochondria produce energy through cellular respiration, they use glucose extracted from food in order to form ATP.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.

Detailed explanation-5: -The process of photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts, using chlorophyll, the green pigment involved in photosynthesis. Chloroplasts absorb sunlight and use it in conjunction with water and carbon dioxide gas to produce food for the plant.
