1. Mitochondria
   Minute bodies in the cytoplasm of a cell which are responsible for respiration and specialised reactions. The enzymes they carry catalyse the biochemical processes of cell respiration and the anabolic conversion of simple substances into compounds which store chemical energy.

4. Mitochondria
   a cell organelle found in eucaryotic cells which produces ATP as a product of the kreb cycle and the electron transport system Cells requiring large amounts of energy, such as secreting odontoblasts, have large numbers of mitochondria. Mitochondria are self replicating and contain their own DNA for this purpose.

5. Mitochondria
   Microscopic structures (from 0.001 mm - 0.4 mm) in cells and muscle fibres, just visible under the highest magnification of the light microscope. Centres of aerobic respiration using oxygen, regenerating ATP, and producing carbon dioxide and water as end products of the oxidation of glucose.

6. Mitochondria
   Membrane-bound cellular organelles in which organic substrates derived from food are oxidized to provide energy for all kinds of vital activities. They carry their own complement of DNA and are replicated independently so that when the cell divides, each daughter cell will receive half of the mitochondria

8. Mitochondria
   Mitochondria: Normal structures responsible for energy production in cells. Mitochondria are located in the cytoplasm outside the nucleus of the cell. They consist of two sets of membranes, a smooth continuous outer coat and an inner membrane arranged in tubules or in folds that form plate-like doub...
