WHAT IS MITOCHONDRIA A=??/ |
|
Answer» tion:The mitochondrion (/ˌmaɪtəˈkɒndrɪən/,[1] PLURAL mitochondria) is a semi autonomous double-membrane-bound organelle found in most eukaryotic ORGANISMS. Some CELLS in some MULTICELLULAR organisms may, however, lack mitochondria (for example, mature mammalian red blood cells). A number of unicellular organisms, such as microsporidia, parabasalids, and diplomonads, have also reduced or transformed their mitochondria into other structures.[2] To date, only ONE eukaryote, Monocercomonoides, is known to have completely lost its mitochondria,[3] and one multicellular organism, Henneguya salminicola, is known to have retained mitochondrion-related organelles in association with a complete loss of their mitochondrial genome.[3][4][5] |
