Mitochondria are filamentous, granular, cytoplasmic structures which are the site of cellular respiration and generation of ATP. It is also called powerhuose of a cell.

<h3><u>Functions </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>Mitochondria</u><u>:</u></h3>
  • They help in the synthesis of fatty acid and amino acid.
  • They regulate calcium ion concentration inside the cell.
  • They are the site of thermogenesis ( heat generation)

Explain how the terms oxidation and reduction apply even when there is only a partial shift of electrons between atoms linked by
aliina [53]

Explanation:

In a covalent bond, there is sharing of the donated electron by two atomic species having very small electronegative differences between them.

Oxidation is the loss of electrons by a specie and it usually lead to an increase in oxidation number.

Reduction is the gain of electrons by a specie. It leads to a lower oxidation number.

Since there is no actual loss of gain of electrons in a covalent body, the electronegativiy is at work.

Electronegativity is the ability of a specie to draw the shared electrons more to itself in a covalent bond.

  • Between two atoms bonded covalently, the more electronegative specie draws the electrons closer.
  • This leaves a partial negative charge on it.
  • The other electron then becomes partially positively charged.
  • We can then say, the more electronegative specie undergoes reduction.
  • The less electronegative one undergoes oxidation.
