The job of mitochondria is to perform convert glucose into energy through cellular respiration (aerobic respiration) using water and oxygen. The cell can then use the energy created or the mitochondrion can store the energy in the bonds of a chemical called adenosine triphosphate (ATP) that the mitochondrion has created.

What is a Mitochondrias?
The mitochondria's job is to provide energy for cells. It produces ATP adenosine triphosphate which is used by the cells.
Are mitochondrias in prokaryote cells?
No, only in eurokaryotic cells.
What type of cell is a mitochondria in?
Mitochondrias are in animal and plant cells.
What are the functions of the mitochondrias?
They conduct respiratory process.They energize cell by it
What is the energy generating powerhouse of the cell?
mitochondrias
Do all cells have mitochondrias?
No every cell do not have.Some eukariyotes and every prokariyote lack it.
Do plant cells need a mitochondria?
yes, plant cells need mitochondrias too
Are mitochondrias like kidneys in that filter out waste?
No, mitochondria do not filter waste. Mitochondria create energy for the cell.
How many mitochondrias are in your body?
There are from a few to hundreds in each cell, and you have trillions of cells ... so too many to count.
Why are mitochondria know as the batteries of the cell?
They generate ATP through aerobic respiration.So energy need for cellular activites is produced by mitochondrias.
Do both plant and animal cells have mitochondrias they both carry on photosynthesis?
yes they boh have mitochondria but i think that only plkant cells do photosinthisis but i am probly wrong
What is the purpose of the mitochondrias of the plant cell?
Mitochondria derive energy for all cells, plant or animal, in which they reside. They are the aerobic energy-derivers of eukaryotic cells. Plants require energy for multitudinous cellular processes just like animals and that is what the mitochondria are for.
