Many cells typically obtain their energy through sunlight or organic molecules which help the cell undergo specific energy pathways which turn these sources into energy in the form of ATP or NADH. (Tried keeping it as simple as I could)
We the body digests the food we eat and stores glucose. Cells turn glucose into ATP, and utilizing this as chemical energy, the cell performs the various chemical reactions which allow it to carry out its function.
From Howstuffworks.com:
A set of 10 enzymes allows a cell to perform glycolysis. Another eight enzymes control the citric-acid cycle (also known as the Krebs cycle). These two processes together allow a cell to turn glucose and oxygen into adenosine triphosphate, or ATP. In an oxygen-consuming cell like E. coli or a human cell, one glucose molecule forms 36 ATP molecules (in something like a yeast cell, which lives its life without oxygen, only glycosis occurs and it produces only two ATP molecules per glucose molecule). ATP is a fuel molecule that is able to power enzymes by performing "uphill" chemical reactions
Note: Neurons also utilize electricity (in addition to chemical transmitters) to perform their functions. The heart also produces and responds to electrical current.
Adenosine triphosphate, commonly called ATP.
Generally, the source of energy for cell functions is ATP or Adenosine triphosphate.
It is biochemical energy obtained by transformation of ATP into ADP.

The function of the mitochondria in a plant cell is to support the function of the cell and the structure. The mitochondria usually has a membrane which has folds that are stretched to provide a wider surface area for cellular activities.
to breifly answer your questions: the mitochondria produces energy to the cell.
To do cell work.
In a cell, phosphate and ADP is floating around the cytoplasm. There is energy in these things. When needed, the cell will use these for energy.

They use the mitochondria in the cell's cytoplasm to change glucose (in your blood) to energy the cell can use
Function laws
No it is not.
to provide the cell with energy
It has a universal function. That is to produce energy
Mitochondria have an universal function. That is to provide energy for cell..
The product obtained during cellular anaerobic respiration human muscle cell water, energy and carbon dioxide.

The function of a chloroplast in a cell is to capture light energy from the sun and convert it to energy usable within the cell (ATP) through the process of photosynthesis.
To produce ATP which is the energy that powers the cell
A fat cell stores energy for later use.
