Is it true or false that mitochondria releases energy from the cell to do its work?
This is very true because mitochondria are the site of cellular respiration.
Is it True or false that chromosomes which carry genes are found in the nucleus of the cell?
True. Mitochondria contain their own DNA - and the chromosomes present in mitochondria are much smaller than those found in the nucleus (they are much more similar to Prokaryotic chromosomes). Mitochondrial DNA is not involved in the central processes of the cell.
Is mitochondria primarily the anaerobic phase of respiration?
True
Animal cells have many mitochondria they must contract quickly true or false?
True
Do organelles within a cell act independently of each other at all times?
Of course not,that is not true. They have to work together always. However, mitochondria do act alone. They will divide when it is necessary even without the cell dividing.
Is it true or false that mitochondria releases energy from the cell to do its work?

Do organelles use energy from sunlight to produce food are called mitochondria?
False. Mitochondria are the organelles that are involved in the aerobic breakdown of food melcule to make usable energy. The organelles the us the sun energy to make food are called Chloroplasts and are present only in plants nad prokaryotes. The first person is wrong. It is true. Mitochondria provide the energy a cell needs to move, divide, produce secretory products, etc. In short, they are the power centers of the cell. The person in the answer above is mixing the mitochondria and the Lysosome.
What has more mitochondria a heart cell or a skin cell?
Muscles cells require vast amounts more mitochondria, in order to release the ATP energy necessary to contract and help us move.

True. Mitochondria contain their own DNA - and the chromosomes present in mitochondria are much smaller than those found in the nucleus (they are much more similar to Prokaryotic chromosomes). Mitochondrial DNA is not involved in the central processes of the cell.
In respiration is most of the energy released in the mitochondria?
true

For glycolysis to begin glucose must enter the mitochondria?
true
Stomata and mitochondria are two speialized cells found only in plants true or false?
False. Mitochondria are found in both plants and animals.
Is mitochondria and chloroplasts endosymbiotic?
Mitochondria and chloroplasts are thought to have originated as prokaryotic endosymbionts: True
Do both chloroplasts and mitochondria lack genetic information in the form of DNA?
true :)
