3. Mitochondria (singular mitochondrion)are the
sites of cellular respiration, the metabolic
process that generates Adenosine Tri –
Phosphate (ATP) by extracting energy from
sugars, fat, and other fuels with the help of
oxygen.
Mitochondria are found in nearly all eukaryotic
cells, including the of plants, animals ,fungi,
and most protists.
Some cells are known to have more
mitochondrion and others has few
mitochondrion that depends on the cell’s level
of metabolic activity.

5. Mitochondrion has double membrane :
Smooth outer membrane: is for easy
movement through the cytoplasm and
controls the movement of substances.
Inner membrane: folded to increase the
surface area for maximum chemical
reactions to occur
Cristae : site of the enzyme reactions to
make energy(ATP)
Matrix: fluid with compounds for cell
respiration and making the energy.
6. Cellular respiration takes place in 3
processes and those processes are:
Glycolysis which breaks down glucose.
Citric acid cycle which takes place inside
the mitochondrion matrix and its known to
complete the breakdown of glucose.
Oxidation phosphorylation known as the
synthesis of more ATP meaning it generate
more and more ATP.
This process takes place in our
mitochondrion.

8. Golgi bodies and dictysome are known
as the factory of the cell because it is the
center of manufacturing , warehouse for
storage, sorting, and shipping.
Products of the ER such as protein, are
modified and stored and then sent to
other destination
So this is mostly specialised for secretion

10. Structure:
It is found within the cytoplasm of both plant
and animal cells.
The Golgi is composed of stacks of membrane-
bound structures. In plant cells, an individual
stack is sometimes called a dictyosome.
Function:
The creation of lysosomes.
Transports lipids around the cell.
Packages and labels items and then sends to
different parts of the cell.
