The mitochondria is the power plant of the cell. It takes the energy from food, and converts it into ATP, which is then used more readily as energy by the cell. As such, it only produces the ATP as needed.

energy release and synthesis
The factor that most directly controls the rate at which food is broken down to release energy between (A) enzymes, (B) hormones, (C) nucleic acids or (D) vitamins is (A) enzymes.
Plasma Membrane- External boundary of the cell- Confines cell contents; regulates entry and exit of materials Lysosomes- Scattered in cytoplasm- Digest ingested materials and worn-out organelles Mitochondrion- Scattered throughout the cell- Control release of energy from food; from ATP Microvilli- Projections of the plasma membrane- Increase the membrane surface area Golgi apparatus- Near the nucleus ( in the cytoplasm )- Packages proteins to be incorporated into the plasma membrane or lysosomes or exported from the cell
The mitochondria is the cell structure that controls the release of energy from foods. It also forms ATP. The mitochondria is scattered throughout the cell.

Mitochondrion
In a cell that is respiring aerobically (i.e. using oxygen), the mitochondria are the site of most ATP production.They are scattered through the cytoplasm, but tend to concentrate where the cell requires energy.
The thyroid gland controls the rate that food is turned into energy. The thyroid gland releases thyroxin and if too much is release a person will lose weight.
why
it controls release of energy from food. healthy nerves and of course helps growth.......
