Oxidative phosphorylation occurs within the mitochondria which releases energy (in the form of ATP) for the cell. They generate adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is used by the cells to make energy. It is because mitochondria provide energy that they are known as the "powerhouses of the cell"
Their job is to generate energy. They carry out respiration
The job of the mitochondria has in it plant cell is the same job that mitochondria have in animal cell. The mitochondria makes energy for the cell to function.
If a mitochondria was had a job in the city, it'd be a power generator.
make protein
Human Heart
The synthesis site of ATP. This is the energy currency of the cell so the job of the mitochondria could be said to be the cell's battery.

no, mitochondria convert the sugar, can give it(the cell) Nutrients (food) to mainly keep it fresh and alive. Without cells mitochondria can't do its job. Without mitochondria cells can't do their job either
The mitochondria is the energy source of a cell.
To provide energy.
mitochondria is an organelle that does that job
You would expect to find many mitochondria in a muscle cell. This is because the mitochondria makes the energy fo a cell, and muscle cells need alot of energy to do their job. The more energy a cell needs to do its job, the more mitochondria it has.
The mitochondrion is the site of aerobic respiration.
