Which organelle is the powerhouse of the cell and involved in energy production?
The mitochondria have two membranes. This is the site of cellular respiration - or energy production. This involves the conversion of glucose into ATP.
What is The process represented on the diagram of a mitochondron?
The diagram of a mitochondrion typically represents the process of cellular respiration. In this process, the mitochondrion generates energy in the form of ATP by breaking down glucose and oxygen, releasing carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. This energy production is essential for the functioning of the cell.
Why is the process that takes place in a mitochondrion often described as being the opposite of the process that takes place in a chloroplast?
Because the reactions involved are opposite. In cellular respiration (occurs in mitochondrion), glucose reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. In photosynthesis (which occurs in chloroplasts) carbon dioxide and water are used to produce glucose and give off oxygen.The chemical processes are opposites with regard to the reactants and products, with respiration releasing energy and photosynthesis storing energy.
How many membranes does a mitochondrion have?
A mitochondrion has two membranes.
What are the organelles in the cell that changes the simple sugars into energy?
In animal cells, mitochondria convert glucose, or sugars, into ATP (Adenosine TriPhosphate), which is used to create energy for the cell. In plant cells, a similar job is performed by the chloroplasts.
Is glucose created in the mitochondrion?
No, the energy FROM glucose is released there. Glucose is sugar, just a fancy name.
What are two reactants that enter the mitochondrion?
Glucose and Oxygen
What Provides energy for the cell by breaking down glucose?
Which of the following structures breaks down sugars to provide energy for cell activities?
Mitochondrion breaks down what?
They break down glucose to release energy.That energy is stored in ATP.
Which cell organelle extracts energy from breakdown products of carbohydrates such glucose?
The mitochondria is the organelle responsible for extracting energy from the breakdown products of carbohydrates such as glucose, through the process of cellular respiration.
Which organelle in the plant Cell and the animal Cell can change glucose into energy?
This Cellular organelle that contains its own Dna and the mechanisms for Dna expression and transforms glucose sugar into Atp is The Mitochondrion; plural Mitochondria.
Which organelle is the powerhouse of the cell and involved in energy production?
The mitochondria have two membranes. This is the site of cellular respiration - or energy production. This involves the conversion of glucose into ATP.
What is Process occurs in a mitochondrion?
Aerobic respiration take place in mitochondria.It produce CO2 and ATP.
Do animal cells have mitochondrion?
no it does not have a mitochondrion
What is the job of mitchondia?
The job of mitochondria is to perform convert glucose into energy through cellular respiration (aerobic respiration) using water and oxygen. The cell can then use the energy created or the mitochondrion can store the energy in the bonds of a chemical called adenosine triphosphate (ATP) that the mitochondrion has created.
The mitochondrion is the place in the cell where what happens?
The mitochondrion is where cellular respiration occurs, converting nutrients such as glucose into a usable form of energy called ATP through a series of biochemical reactions. This process plays a crucial role in generating energy for the cell to carry out its functions.
What is the job of the mitochondria'?
The job of mitochondria is to perform convert glucose into energy through cellular respiration (aerobic respiration) using water and oxygen. The cell can then use the energy created or the mitochondrion can store the energy in the bonds of a chemical called adenosine triphosphate (ATP) that the mitochondrion has created.
