What else can I help you with?
Is mitochondria an organelle that burns a cell's food for energy?
Kind of. But it does a lot more than burn it. If we just burnt food we would get a big release of energy instantly. Instead mitochondria produce a chemical called ATP which we use for energy. Each molecule of glucose you eat produces 36 molecules of ATP.
Which organelle is called energy trapping organelle why it is so called?
An energy trapping organelle in a plant would be the chloroplast because it traps light energy for light dependent reactions in photosynthesis to generate ATP( Adenosine Tri-phosphate) and NADPH (Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate), sources of chemical energy for all organisms.
Which organelle would cause fatigue?
The mitochondria is the organelle that can cause fatigue. Mitochondria are responsible for producing energy in the form of ATP through cellular respiration. If mitochondria are not functioning efficiently, it can lead to decreased energy production and result in fatigue.
What part of the cell generates energy for the cell?
In animal cells, the organelle that provides energy for the cell is the mitochondria. In plant cells, this would be the chloroplast.
What would happen to the Chloroplast and organism if the organelle failed?
If it is a autotroph , no food will be produced either energy. It will die eventually
What cell structure would release energy?
The cell structure responsible for releasing energy is the mitochondria. This is an organelle that is bound by a membrane and is present in most eukaryotic cells.
Where is a cell would you find the organelle?
Where in a cell wall would you find this organelle
Why do cells need energy?
Cells need energy to perform various functions such as growth, repair, and reproduction. Energy is required for cellular processes like metabolism, movement, and signaling. Without energy, cells would not be able to carry out essential activities necessary for survival.
How this organelle relate to a life process as well as what would happen to the cell if the organelle malfunction?
The mitochondria is responsible for producing energy in the form of ATP through cellular respiration. This process is essential for the cell's survival. If the mitochondria malfunction, the cell will not be able to generate enough ATP, leading to energy depletion and potential cell death.
Which organelle would the spirulina bacterium have provided?
The spirulina bacterium would provide the chloroplast organelle to the eukaryotic cell it was engulfed by. Chloroplasts are specialized organelles that perform photosynthesis, converting light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose.
A defect in which organelle would cause fatigue?
A defect in the mitochondria, which are responsible for generating energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), could lead to fatigue. Mitochondrial dysfunction can result in decreased energy production, affecting cellular processes that require energy, such as muscle contraction and nerve signal transmission, leading to fatigue.
What is the name of the organelle involved in the oxygen requiring process by which the energy in the macromolecules is stored in ATP?
The organelle is called mitochondria. It is responsible for cellular respiration, a process in which oxygen is used to convert macromolecules (such as glucose) into ATP, the main energy currency of the cell.
