Detailed explanation-1: -Within the mitochondria, the DNA directs the ribosomes to produce proteins as enzymes, or biological catalysts, in ATP production. Mitochondria are responsible for converting nutrients into the energy-yielding ATP to power the cell’s activities. The number of mitochondria in a cell depends on the cell’s function.
Detailed explanation-2: -The classic role of mitochondria is oxidative phosphorylation, which generates ATP by utilizing the energy released during the oxidation of the food we eat. ATP is used in turn as the primary energy source for most biochemical and physiological processes, such as growth, movement and homeostasis.
Detailed explanation-3: -Yes, in mitochondria breakdown of glucose takes place to provide energy to the body. Therefore in cellular respiration or glycolysis, mitochondria use glucose with the release of ATP, which provides energy to the body.
Detailed explanation-4: -Without the ability to make, or synthesize, proteins, these important organelles (tiny organs within a cell) would cease to function. Mitochondria use proteins to break down sugars and produce cellular energy in the form of ATP.
