Which organelle is known as power house of the cell?
Mitochondria is known as the powerhouse of a cell because the energy required for various chemical activities needed for the various life functions is released by mitochondria in the form of atp molecules
What does the mitochondria do in an animal and plant cell?
The mitochondria produce energy for the cell's various functions.
What are the eight organelles and their functions?
what are the functions of the 10 cells of organalles
What is the process used to make energy in living organisms?
In the cells of all living things, the power plant of the living organisms cells are mitochondria. The mitochondria take sugar (glucose) and oxygen and turns it into energy. I hope this helped!
Which organelle functions as the power plant of the cell?
Mitochondria
Why are mitochondria and chloroplasts differ?
They have different functions. But they have similarities
What is the primamry function of the mitochondria?
The main function of the mitochondria is the production of energy. This energy is used up by the cells for their functions.
What organelle functions as the main energy source of the cell?
mitochondria
What is mitochondria?
Mitochondria are organelles, the small objects in the cell that carry out the necessary functions of life. Mitochondria themselves carry out cellular respiration and create energy (ATP) for eukaryotic cells - for this reason they are sometimes called the "powerhouse" of the cell. Mitochondria are found in all eukaryotic cells to turn any kind of food into energy, whether that organism created it or not.A mitochondria is an organelle in a cell which converts pyruvate to ATP. pyruvate comes from the breakdown of glucose and ATP stands for adenosine triphosphate. The cell uses ATP to power cell functions.
Is mitochondria a function or a structure?
Mitochondria is a structure used to provide energy for the various functions of the human body, so it is a structure.
Compare the functions of mitochondria and chloroplasts in cells?
mitochondria was a power house of the cells and chloroplast is the green thing that make the photosynthesis
Why is necessary the cells of cardiac tissue contain huge numbers of mitochondria?
Heart is a very active organ. It functions through out the life. It needs a lot of energy.
