A mitochondria is an organelle found in eukaryotic cells. It is shaped similar to a curved bean. The inside membrane is extremly folded. These folds are called cristea and give the mitochonria a large surface area allowing for efficient cellular respiration to occur. The mitochonria's purpose is to carry out cellular respiration. Cellular respiration uses glucose made during photosynthesis to create glycogen. The glycogen will release energy when it is broken down. The energy is in the form of ATP.
