Answer» \tMitochondria are round "tube-like" organelles that provide energy to a cell in the form of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) for performing different chemical activities for the sustainance of life.\tThe mitochondria is also called powerhouse of the cell.\tIt is surrounded by two membranes.\tThe outer membrane is porous wherea the inner membrane has deep folds that provides a large surface to perform the chemical reactions required for the generation of ATP.\tThe inner membrane is compartmentalized into various cristae.\tThe ground substance or space enclosed by inner membrane is called matrix.\tMitochondria have their own DNA and ribosomes and are hence capable to produce some of their required proteins all by themselves.
