mitochondrion
The cell organelle found in plant cells but not in animal cells is the chloroplast. Chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis, allowing plants to convert sunlight into energy. They contain chlorophyll, which gives plants their green color and plays a crucial role in capturing light energy. This organelle is essential for plant life but is absent in animal cells, which obtain energy through other means.
The organelle found in animal cells responsible for energy production is called the mitochondrion (plural: mitochondria). Mitochondria generate adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which serves as the primary energy currency of the cell, through processes such as cellular respiration. They are often referred to as the "powerhouses" of the cell due to this critical role in energy metabolism.
Mitochondria.
The organelle is called the mitochondria. It is known as the powerhouse of the cell because it is responsible for generating energy in the form of ATP through the process of cellular respiration.
The MITOCHONDRIA provides energy for both the plant and animal cell.
