Explanation: These postulates were formulated by Robert Koch as a result of his experiments with healthy and infected mice. The postulates are often used to determine if a phatogen causes a disease. These are:
The pathogen must be present in sick individuals but not in healthy ones.
The pathogen must be isolated from individuals and cultivated in a pure culture.
The pathogen cultivated must cause sickness when it's injected in suceptible inviduals.
The pathogen must be isolated from the injected individuals and must be exactly as the first one.
The population of all the mitochondria of a given cell constitutes the chondriome. A single mitochondrion is often found in unicellular organisms, while human liver cells have about 1000–2000 mitochondria per cell, making up 1/5 of the cell volume.
