Mitochondria are rod-shaped organelles are basically considered the power producers of the cell, it converts oxygen and nutrients into adenosine triphosphate or ATP, which is the chemical energy,also known as "currency" of the cell which powers the metabolic actions of the cell. This process is called aerobic respiration and it is the reason animals breathe oxygen. Cellular repiration happens in the mitochodrion. The 3 phases of cellular respiration are Krebs Cycle, Electron Transport and Glycolysis (Fermentation). Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm while the Krebs cycle and electron transport take place in the mitochondria.
Answer:
5 electrons
Explanation:
When an atom loses are gain the electrons ions are formed.
There are two types of ions.
Anion
Cation
1 = Anion
It is formed when an atom gain the electrons. when atom gain electron negative charge is created on atom. For example.
X + e⁻ → X⁻
2= Cation
It is formed when an atom loses the electrons. when atom lose electron positive charge is created on atom. For example.
X → X⁺ + e⁻
When an atom loses three electrons +3 charge is created. If this atom have 8 protons it means there were 8 electrons too. When it lost three electrons then remaining number of electrons are 5.
X → X³⁺ + 3e⁻
A. Covalent bonds is the answer
