Mitochondria are membrane-bound organelles, present in eukaryotic cells.   These are known as the power plant of the cells as they are site for biochemical reactions of respiration and produce energy currency (ATP) of the cell.

The reactions, involved in ATP production are Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation. The Krebs cycle takes place in mitochondrial matrix, while oxidative phosphorylation occurs at inner mitochondrion membrane.

<span>When you are pregnant, you do not ovulate because you have already fertilized an egg and it is embedded into the uterus where it is growing into a baby. The body knows this, so it does not shed the uterine lining. The shedding of this lining is triggered by hormones which change when the body is pregnant. During pregnancy, a large amount of progesterone is initially produced which helps to prevent the lining from shedding. If you are not pregnant, your progesterone level will begin to decline at the end of your cycle, triggering the shedding of the lining and the period. Birth control pills alter your hormones to mimic a pregnant state. This will prevent the body from releasing an egg and then shedding the uterine lining.</span>

ankoles [38]

Answer:

In the condition, the thyroid gland increases in size in an attempt to get more iodine. However, in the countries where iodine is added routinely to foods and table salt, the lack of dietary iodine is not the typical reason of goiters.
