Which cell structures release the energy stored in sugar?
Mitochondria are the cell structures responsible for releasing the energy stored in sugar through the process of cellular respiration. Within the mitochondria, the chemical energy stored in glucose is converted into ATP, the cell's main energy currency.
Where chemical reactions in a cell?
b
How is mitochondria like the furnace in a house?
The Mitochondria produces energy for the cell and a furnace produces heat energy for your house.
What organelle does cellular respiration take place in?
MITOCONDRION
Which plant cell organelle converts chemical fuel into packets of chemical energy that can power the cell?
The mitochondria is the plant cell organelle responsible for converting chemical fuel into packets of chemical energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This process is known as cellular respiration and is essential for powering the cell's activities.
How many mitochondria might we expect to find in a human skin cell?
At least 10 in each cell.
What are two cell types that have the most mitochondria How many mitochondria do each of the cell types have Why do you think this is so?
Skeletal Muscles. 300 mitochondria. Activities that you do. Cardiac Muscles. 200 mitochondria. Heart pumps so it needs energy.
How do you destroy the mitochondria in the cell?
The only way to kill the mitochondria in the cell is.... die. Life's processes are fueled by the energy that the mitochondria produce with the molecules that are taken in whether be plant or animal. Animal cells may contain more than one mitochondria for each cell. There can be as many as 20 individual mitochondria housed in a single cell.
Would you expect a muscle cell to have many or few mitochondria?
You would expect to find many mitochondria in a muscle cell. This is because the mitochondria makes the energy fo a cell, and muscle cells need alot of energy to do their job. The more energy a cell needs to do its job, the more mitochondria it has.
What can you conclude if an animal cell has many mitochondria?
It is very active. That is because mitochondria generate energy
What does a cell organ do?
Cell parts, or the parts inside a cell are called organelles. Each of these organelles has a special job to carry out. For example, the mitochondria provide energy for the cell. The mitochondria are often called the "power house" or "power plant" of a cell.
What does the organelle mitochondria do in the cell?
The Mitochondria provides energy for the cell
What does the mitochondria do inside a cell?
The mitochondria produces energy for the cell
What does the mitochondria do inside cell?
The mitochondria produces energy for the cell
What is the location in the cell of mitochondria?
The mitochondria are located throughout the cell.
What does mitochondria have to do with repiration?
Mitochondria are the organelles within a cell that house the enzymes that are involved in aerobic cellular respiration. Cell types that have a high demand for ATP (such as muscle cells) have many mitochondria while cell types with a low demand for ATP (such as osteocytes) have fewer mitochondria.
What is the powerhouse of a cell?
The powerhouse of a cell is the mitochondria. Mitochondria play a critical role in generating energy for the cell through a process called cellular respiration, producing ATP (adenosine triphosphate) which powers many cellular functions.
