    Glossary Mitochondria

    organelles generating energy for cellular functions

    Mitochondria, often referred to as the "powerhouses of the cell," are organelles found in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. They generate most of the cell's supply of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is used as a source of chemical energy. Mitochondria also play a role in other cellular processes such as signaling, cellular differentiation, and cell death, as well as maintaining control of the cell cycle and cell growth.
