Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -While most aerobic respiration (with oxygen) takes place in the cell’s mitochondria, and anaerobic respiration (without oxygen) takes place within the cell’s cytoplasm.
Detailed explanation-2: -The mitochondrion is known for providing the cell with energy because most of cellular respiration occurs within its membranes. Cellular respiration converts glucose into adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is the energy currency of cells.
Detailed explanation-3: -Mitochondria have an important role in cellular respiration through the production of ATP, using chemical energy found in glucose and other nutrients.
