Mitochondria are located in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. They are often referred to as the "powerhouses" of the cell because they generate adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the cell's primary energy currency. Mitochondria can be found in varying numbers depending on the cell type and its energy demands, with higher concentrations typically present in muscle cells and neurons.
What else can I help you with?
Which organelle has storms?
mitrochondria
What is the Krebs cycle and where does is occur?
In the mitrochondria!
Is Mitrochondria the structure in cytoplasm where food is burned to release energy?
yes
What cell have more mitrochondria skin cell or a kidney cell?
kidney
Does water movement go in or out of the mitrochondria?
Out, because it "makes" water (by burning hydrogen).
A group of tissues that work together is called?
mitrochondria is responsible for protein synthesis in cell
What cells are abundant in mitrochondria?
Cells that require a lot of energy for daily activities, such as muscle cells.
Does a heterotroph have mitochondria?
Yes it does. A heterotroph has a mitrochondria because it is needed to break down glucose to get ATP
What process takes place within mitrochondria?
Mitochondria produces energy by breaking down ATP into ADP.
Which source of energy is used most efficiently in cellular metabolism?
ATP (converted to ADP). Aerobically it is converted back by mitrochondria by oxidizing hydrogen.
What is size of mitrochondria?
The mitochondria looks like the size of a Lima bean inside its cell. So imagine the cell as the size of your hand, then picture a Lima bean in your hand. That is approximately the size of the mitochondria inside the cell (your hand).
Do nerve cells have mitrochondria?
Yes, in fact only a very small minority of cells lack these organelles. Mitochondria are vital in respiration, to release energy. Nerve cells require energy to send impulses throughout the body.
