3. What are Mitochondria?
Mitochondria are known as the
“powerhouses of the cell,” whereas
it is reliable for the extracting of
energy from food through cellular
respiration. The energy released is
in the manner of adenosine
triphosphate (ATP). It is an energy
currency of the cell.

4. Parts of the Mitochondria
1.) Molecule of ATP Synthase
2.) Matrix
3.) Intermembrane Space
4.) Cristae
5.) Ribosome
6.) Granules
7.) DNA
8.) Outer Membrane
9.) Inner Membrane

5. PARTS OF THE MITOCHONDRIA
1.) Molecule of ATP Synthase
•An enzyme that instantly effectuates
adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
throughout the process of cellular
respiration.
2.) Matrix
•Contains DNA of the mitochondrial
genome and the enzyme of the TCA
cycle which metabolizes nutrients into
by-products the mitochondrion can
manipulate for energy production.

6. PARTS OF THE MITOCHONDRIA
3.) Intermembrane Space
•Manages a crucial role in consorting a
variety of cellular activities, such as
regulation of respiration and metabolic
functions.
4.) Cristae
•Expands the job of the mitochondrion
to synthesize ATP, the inner membrane
is folded to form cristae. These folds
allow a much greater quantity of
electron transport chain enzymes and
ATP synthase to be jammed into the
mitochondrion.

7. PARTS OF THE MITOCHONDRIA
5.) Ribosome
•A vital substance in mitochondria that is a
protein complex and functions as
riboprotein for translating mitochondrial
mRNAs encoded in mtDNA.
6.) Granules
•They actualize to generate contact sites
between inner and outer mitochondrial
membranes in which enzymes can function
effectively.
7.) DNA
•Cellular organelles within eukaryotic cells
that convert chemical energy from food
into a form that cells can use, such as
adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

8. PARTS OF THE MITOCHONDRIA
8.) Outer Membrane
•Contains proteins known as porins,
that allow movement of ions into and
out of the mitochondrion.
9.) Inner Membrane
•Ultrapractical barrier to the passage of
tiny molecules between the cytosol and
the matrix and maintains the proton
gradient that blazes oxidative
phosphorylation.
