Mitochondria are tiny organelles inside cells that are involved in releasing energy from food.This process is known as cellular respiration. It is for this reason that mitochondria are often referred to as the powerhouses of the cell. Cells that need a lot of energy, like muscle cells, can contain thousands of mitochondria.
Answer:
Option A, accumulate sulfur as intracellular granules.
Explanation:
Purple sulfur bacteria belong to the group of Proteobacteria. These probacterias are anaerobic in nature and yet are able to photosynthesise. They are usually found in water environments such as hot springs, stagnant water etc. They use sulphur (either in the form of sulfide, or thiosulfate) as an electron donor in their photosynthetic activity to oxidise sulfur thereby producing granules of elemental sulfur.
while filamentous sulfur oxidizers use nitrate instead of oxygen to oxidize sulfide thereby producing granules.
Hence, option A is correct.
A food is something that provides nutrients. Nutrients are substances that provide: energy for activity, growth, and all functions of the body such as breathing, digesting food, and keeping warm; materials for the growth and repair of the body, and for keeping the immune system healthy. (So we don’t die:))
There are lots of animals that do this and they are classified as herbivores.
