GENERAL HISTOLOGY

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: -Most of the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesized during glucose metabolism is produced in the mitochondria through oxidative phosphorylation. This is a complex reaction powered by the proton gradient across the mitochondrial inner membrane, which is generated by mitochondrial respiration.

Detailed explanation-3: -Mitochondria are organelles – ‘small organs’ within each cell. They produce energy in the form of a molecule called ATP (adenosine triphosphate) which gets used throughout the cell to power the different jobs it has to do.

Detailed explanation-4: -Energy in Mitochondria Energy is produced in the mitochondria in the form of ATP. Energy from the oxidation of high energy compounds NADH and FADH2 produced in the mitochondria by TCA cycle is utilised in the ATP synthesis through electron transport system. ATP is a molecule that has high energy bonds.
