They are the ATP molecules. It stands for Adenosine Tri Phosphate

Yes, they do. They can take the sugars made during photosynthesis and turn them into ATP energy in their own mitochondria.
Glucose is broken down in respiration to produce ATP: ATP (Adenosine Tri-Phosphate) is the molecule made as a result of respiration. In aerobic respiration (ie, when oxygen is present), a total of 36 of them are made for every molecule of glucose that you put in, whereas anaerobic respiration (when there isn't enough oxygen) only gives a yield of two of them. Also, they aren't an 'energy molecule', as such. They act like an energy currency for the body, as when they split into ADP and P, they release a large amount of energy which can then be harnessed by cells.
The Cells in your body get energy from cellular respiration
No, mitochondria are not organs. Mitochondria are membrane-bound organelles found in the cells of eukaryotic organisms, responsible for generating the majority of the cell's supply of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is used as a source of chemical energy. Organs are more complex structures made up of different tissues and serve specific functions in the body.
ATP
The molecule made by mitochondria that provides power to cells is adenosine triphosphate, also known as ATP.
No, ATP (adenosine-5-triphosphate) is a nucleotide, a molecule used by cells to transport chemical energy. In humans, the mitochondria produce ATP. The mitochondria are among many cellular organelles.
Mitochondria do not make chemical energy, the release it.

Atp is produced in a series of steps inside the mitochondria. It is made via the process of glycolysis and the kreb's cycle. That is why the mitochondria is also referred to as the "power-house" of the cell.
That is chemical energy. Energy is in the ATP molecules
The mitochondria are known as the powerhouse of the cell because they are responsible for producing the energy molecule ATP through a process called cellular respiration. This energy is essential for various cellular functions and activities.
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a molecule that has 3 phosphate molecules attached to it. It is produced in the mitochondria during cellular respiration, and a little is produced in the light dependent reactions of photosynthesis, but this is later used up in the light independent reactions. ATP is used as an energy source for cells to carry out functions like active transport. When a cell needs energy, it breaks one of the phosphates off of the ATP, which releases energy. After this, the ATP is called ADP (adenosine diphosphate)
The energy in ATP is stored as potential energy in the triphosphate attached to the end. The molecule wants to remove one of the phosphates, when it does so, it releases large amounts of energy.
Yes, they do. They can take the sugars made during photosynthesis and turn them into ATP energy in their own mitochondria.
