GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Mitochondria is an organelle in which the biochemical processes of respiration and energy production occur.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -Energy Conversion: Mitochondria and Chloroplasts-Molecular Biology of the Cell-NCBI Bookshelf.

Detailed explanation-4: -In a plant cell, chloroplast makes sugar during the process of photosynthesis converting light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose. In mitochondria, through the process of cellular respiration breaks down sugar into energy that plant cells can use to live and grow.

Detailed explanation-5: -Mitochondria are the “powerhouses” of the cell, breaking down fuel molecules and capturing energy in cellular respiration. Chloroplasts are found in plants and algae. They’re responsible for capturing light energy to make sugars in photosynthesis.
