It is an organelle called the mitochondria
Any ion pump or transporter. Cells make 'electricity' or more properly a potential difference by moving charged ions (sodium, potassium, chloride, hydrogen etc.) across a membrane and 'compartmentalising' them. The charge difference across the membrane gives rise to the potential difference. In terms of voltage, it's usually up to about 80mV or 0.08 Volts. The cells use a lot of energy to create these potential differences usually by hydrolysis of ATP or from exothermic redox reactions. The inter-membrane space of mitochondria is just one example of such a compartment. Hydrogen ions are accumulated here and then allowed to flow out. The energy released is used to synthesise ATP for general use in the cell.
The rod-shaped organelles called mitochondria are considered to be the power plants of cells. They convert oxygen and nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the chemical that powers a cell's metabolic activities.
Aerobic cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria - so these are known as the power plants/houses of the cell.
The mitochondria acts as a power plant for a cell. ;)
the power plant of a cell
The powerhouse of a cell is Mitochondria which produces the energy required for various metabolic activities of a cell.
The mitochondria is commonly referred to as a cell's power plant in eukaryotic cells.A cells power plant is the mitochondrion which produces ATP for the cell to perform its functions.
They are the power plants that drive the cells by producing ATP.
The mitochondria ( Singular: Mitochondrion) is often called a cells power plant. This is because it makes the cells energy.
The nucleus is the power house of a cell. They are found in both plant and animal cells
Yes, both plant and animal cells have mitochondria.

They are the power plants that drive the cells by producing ATP.
The mitochondrion functions similarly for both plant cells and animal cells, producing the ATP used for energy. It can be considered the cell's power plant.
Mitochondria is in both animal cells, and plant cells. The mitochondria is the part of the cell that is like the small power house in the animal/plant cell.

Plant cells, not animal cells.
Yes, both plant and animal cells have mitochondria.
Both animal and plant cells have mitochondria , power houses that convert energy stored.
Plant cells.
Plant cells do not have centrioles, but animal cells do.
All plant cells are eukaryotic cells
