What does the mitochondrion do?
The mitochondria are the site of aerobic cellular respiration.
Which plant cell organelle captures and stores sunlight energy for photosynthesis?
if this is for homework, Stop! it is a chloroplast chlorophyll is made in chloroplasts
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 structure is the powerhouse of the cell?
Yes! The nucleus controls all of the cell's functions.
What is a mitochondira?
provides energy for the cell think if you are at a school then you think of this as a PE TeacherThe mitochondrion (mitochondria is plural) is an organelle within the eukaryotic cell. It is the part that undergoes aerobic cellular respiration, creating usable energy for the cell.
What organelle is the site for where the most energy obtained from carbohydrates?
mitochondria
Which cellular organelle is the primary site of oxygen dependent energy production?
mitochondria
What is the energy producing organelle in a plant cell?
Chloroplast, Chloroplasts is the site of photosynthesis, where the suns energy is turned into chemical energy
The cell organelle that releases energy from food molecules and transform energy into a usable form Site of aerobic respiration?
mitochondrion
What does the mitochondrion do?
The mitochondria are the site of aerobic cellular respiration.
Is chloroplast organelle?
Yes it is an organelle. They are in photosynthetic eukariyotes
What organelle in the plant cell can take light energy and convert it to food?
The chloroplasts are the site of photosynthesis - which creates glucose with the aid of sunlight.
What is the definition of mitochondria?
An organelle found in most eukaryotic cells, containing enzymes for respiration and energy production Mitochondria (often referred to as "The Mighty Mitochondria") are the power supply for the body. They produce energy compounds that assist the body in completing the tasks it must in order to properly function.
What the purpose of mitochondria in a cell?
It releases energy from glucose molecules.It carry out cellular respiration for energy production.Called as the powerhouse of the cell
Which plant cell organelle captures and stores sunlight energy for photosynthesis?
if this is for homework, Stop! it is a chloroplast chlorophyll is made in chloroplasts
Which organelle has most of the genes that controls the cell?
DNA is found in the nucleus. Genes are sections of DNA that code for a functional product, such as protein. Therefore the nucleus is the site where the functions of the cell are controlled.
What organelle is involved in the site of photosynthesis?
chlorophyll
