What is the energy called that is produced in mitochondria?

Answer 1

Mitochondria produce chemical energy, in the form of Adenosine triphosphate or ATP.

Answer 2

The mitochondrion is enclosed by two membranes, each a phospholipid bilayer with a unique collection of embedded proteins (a certain type is called ATP synthase; this is where most of the output energized ATP molecules are produced). The other membrane is smooth, but the inner membrane is convoluted, with infoldings called cristae. The inner membrane divides the mitochondrion into two internal compartments. The first is the intermembrane space, the narrow region between the inner and outer membranes. The second compartment, the mitochondrial matrix, is enclosed by the inner membrane. The matrix contains many different enzymes as well as the mitochondrial DNA and ribosomes. Enzymes in the matrix catalyze some steps of cellular respiration. Other proteins that function in respiration, including the enzyme that makes ATP, are built into the inner membrane, As highly folded surfaces, the cristae give the inner mitochondrial membrane a large surface area, thus enhancing the productivity of cellular respiration.

To summarize, after the glucose is broken into two smaller molecules in the cytosol during glycolosis, these products are broken down inside the mitochondria (to put it extremely simply), and the energy is used to create a proton gradient in the intermembrane space between the inner/outer mitochondrial membranes, and these pass through the ATP synthase protein into the inner mitochondrial membrane. The protein phosphorylates ADP to create ATP, which is released into the cell to do work.

Answer 3

For the formation of another organic molecule called ATP - the main energy source that cells use for most of their work.

Answer 4

The energy molecule that is produced within mitochondria is ATP, or adenosine triphosphate.

Answer 5

ATP are produced in mitochondria. Energy is stored in phosphate bonds

Answer 6

Glucose have chemical energy.So chemical energy is released.

Answer 7

The energy produced in mitochondria is called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is the main energy currency for cellular processes in living organisms.

Answer 8
