which disease is caused in it?
Mitochondrial disorders, cardiac dysfunction, heart failure and autism are some of them.
Mitochondrion
Mitochondria have been implicated in several human diseases, such as mitochondrial disorders, cardiac dysfunction, heart failure and autism.
which of these processes takes place in the mitochondria of a cell They supply cellular energy, and control the cell cycle and cell growth. who discovered this part of the cell? Richard Altmann who was he? He was a German pathologist and histologist. can you tell me about the structure of the above cell part? It contains outer and inner membranes composed of phospholipid bilayers and proteins.

Mitochondrion [SEP] Introduction
Mitochondria generate most of the cell's supply of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), used as a source of chemical energy. A mitochondrion is thus termed the "powerhouse" of the cell. Mitochondria are commonly between 0.75 and 3 μm² in area but vary considerably in size and structure. Unless specifically stained, they are not visible. In addition to supplying cellular energy, mitochondria are involved in other tasks, such as signaling, cellular differentiation, and cell death, as well as maintaining control of the cell cycle and cell growth. Mitochondrial biogenesis is in turn temporally coordinated with these cellular processes. Mitochondria have been implicated in several human diseases, such as mitochondrial disorders, cardiac dysfunction, heart failure and autism.
