Question

which is an organelle that performs cellular respiration and is paired with its correct funcn [a. chloroplast-converts light energy into chemical energy][b. chloroplast-converts chemical energy into light energy][c. mitochondria-converts energy found in glucose into energy for use by the cell][d. mitochondrion-converts cellular energy into glucose chemical energy]

Answer 1

c. mitochondria-converts energy found in glucose into energy for use by the cell


Mitochondrion a singular word for mitochondria is a "powerhouse" organelle of the cell. 

Mitochondrion is an important organelle in most living organisms because it is where biochemical processes of living organisms such as respiration takes place. The mitochondrion has a smooth outer membrane but a larger inner membrane. The inner membrane is about 70% protein and is very convoluted because that can even fit inside the outer membrane. Mitochondrion is the carrier of the Kreb's cycle in the matrix and it is responsible for the transfer of electron chain found in the cristae of the inner membrane.
