Yes, mitochondria have dissimilar DNA to nuclear DNA. That is because mitochondria arose endosymbiotically as an invasion of an early eukaryotic (nucleated) cell by a purple bacterium in a relationship which was subsequently symbiotic. Many mitochondrial substances are encoded for by the mitochondrial DNA. Some others important to mitochondrial function are also encoded by nuclear DNA. But yes, the mitochondrion would have to carry out its own transciption to make the products it itself coded for. As the mitochondrion was once an autonomous bacterium (way back in Cambrian or Precambrian times), its genome would be different to the actual genome of the organism's cell (in the nucleus) in which it resides. And thus for the large part it would function utterly independently. But there may be inteferences that evolved over the billions of years since the system's origin. As I said the nucleus itself encodes for at least some products essential to mitochondrial function.
What else can I help you with?
Does the mitochondrion have any co-workers who's job and appearances that are different from you?
Yes, the mitochondrion works closely with the endoplasmic reticulum to exchange materials for various cellular functions. The endoplasmic reticulum is responsible for protein and lipid synthesis, while the mitochondrion produces energy in the form of ATP. They have different structures and functions but collaborate to support the cell's activities.
What does mitochondrion do?
Mitochondrion is singular, mitochondria is the plural form. So the question should be written "What does a mitochondrion do" or "What do mitochondria do". The primary function of mitochondria is the production of ATP via the Krebs Cycle; basically, the mitochondria are where we turn sugar into energy. They have several other functions as well.
The mitochondrion has DNA that functions indepenently?
Yes,mitochondria have their own DNA.So they replicate themselves.
Function of the mitochondrion in a plant cell?
The mitochondrion functions similarly for both plant cells and animal cells, producing the ATP used for energy. It can be considered the cell's power plant.
Can functional strategy be formulated independently of other functions?
No, functional strategy cannot be formulated independently of other functions. Functional strategies need to be aligned with overall business strategy and coordinated with other functions to ensure that they work together towards achieving organizational goals effectively. Collaboration and alignment between functions are crucial for the successful implementation of functional strategies.

What organelle is found in animal cells and functions energy production?
mitochondrion
The mitochondrion has DNA that functions indepenently?
Yes,mitochondria have their own DNA.So they replicate themselves.
What is the name of the organelle found in animal cell whose functions is energy production?
Mitochondrion.
Function of the mitochondrion in a plant cell?
The mitochondrion functions similarly for both plant cells and animal cells, producing the ATP used for energy. It can be considered the cell's power plant.
What can all animals do independently?
All animals can independently perform basic functions necessary for survival, such as eating, moving, and reproducing.
Why are mitochondria in a plant and a animal cell?
Because mitochondrion are the powerhouses of the cell; they provide it with energy to move and perform functions.
Structures that are similar are called?
Structures that are similar are called analogous structures. These structures may serve similar functions but have evolved independently in different species.
Which of these describes two cell structures with similar functions?
a chloroplast and a mitochondrion are alike because both make energy from sugar
Can functional strategy be formulated independently of other functions?
No, functional strategy cannot be formulated independently of other functions. Functional strategies need to be aligned with overall business strategy and coordinated with other functions to ensure that they work together towards achieving organizational goals effectively. Collaboration and alignment between functions are crucial for the successful implementation of functional strategies.
The mitochondrion is the place in the cell where what happens?
The mitochondrion is where cellular respiration occurs, converting nutrients such as glucose into a usable form of energy called ATP through a series of biochemical reactions. This process plays a crucial role in generating energy for the cell to carry out its functions.
