What is the definition of mitochondria?

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

Mitochondria is an organelle of a cell which is a site of cellular respiration and involved in the process of generation of energy (ATP) for cellular activities by the breakdown of organic compounds usually glucose. It is also referred to as powerhouse of the cell.

Answer 3

Mitochondria are membrane-bound organelles found in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. They are known as the powerhouse of the cell because they generate most of the cell's energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) through a process called cellular respiration. Mitochondria also have their own DNA and can replicate independently of the cell.

Answer 4

In cellular Biology, it is an organelle in the cytoplasm of cells that functions in energy production.

Mitochondria are large organelles that are scattered through most cells.
