Mitochondria

out here converting energy to forms that are actually useful. absolute power house so don’t even try me

[Mitochondria @mitochon2020]

the mitochondria evolved form prokaryotes that once lived as individual organisms. talk abt a strong independent leader!! #mitochondria2020

[Mitochondria @mitochon2020]

bro what are you talking about we regulate cell signaling without us the cell wouldn’t be able communicate

[Endomembrane Campaign @endomembrane20]

@mitochon2020 Mitochondria are all brawn and no brains! You wouldn’t want them to run the cell! Vote endomembrane system: the organized choice. #brainsoverbrawn

[Mitochondria @mitochon2020]

mitochondria enable cells to produce 15 times more ATP than they could otherwise, and complex animals, like humans, need large amounts of energy to survive.

[Mitochondria @mitochon2020]

37 genes are contained in the human mitochondrial genome, 13 of which produce various components of the electron transport chain(ECT)

POWER HOUSE 2020🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[Mitochondria @mitochon2020]

Mitochondria are vital to survival, without us higher animals couldn’t exist bc their cells wouldn’t be able to obtain obtain energy from anaerobic respiration, a process much less efficient than aerobic respiration
