- Mitochondrion - Wikipedia
A mitochondrion (pl mitochondria) is an organelle found in the cells of most eukaryotes, such as animals, plants and fungi Mitochondria have a double membrane structure and use aerobic respiration to generate adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is used throughout the cell as a source of chemical energy [2]
- Mitochondria – Definition, Structure, Function
A mitochondrion (plural: mitochondria) is an organelle in plants, animals, and fungi that produces chemical energy for cells Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell
- Mitochondria - Definition, Function Structure - Biology Dictionary
Mitochondria (singular: mitochondrion) are organelles within eukaryotic cells that produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the main energy molecule used by the cell For this reason, the mitochondrion is sometimes referred to as “the powerhouse of the cell”
- Mitochondria Function: A Simple Discussion and Diagram - Verywell Health
Mitochondria are parts of a human cell known as the “energy factories “ Most human cells, animal cells, and plant cells contain hundreds or even thousands of mitochondria Some cells, such as muscle cells, contain more mitochondria than those that are less active, like skin cells
- Mitochondrial Structure and Function: An In-Depth Analysis
Mitochondria, often termed the powerhouses of the cell, are fascinating organelles central to cellular energy production They convert nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which powers a myriad of biological processes vital for life
- Mitochondria - National Human Genome Research Institute
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) Mitochondria contain their own small chromosomes
