energy processing

• Mitochondria are double-walled membranous sacs with folded inner partitions called cristae.
• Mitochondria releases energy from food molecules and transform energy into usable ATP which happens during cellular respiration
• Mitochondria contains its own DNA and ribosomes, thus independently replicate itself and appear to control the synthesis of its membranes.
• Chloroplasts are also double membrane organelles with inner folds called thylakoids.
• Chloroplasts characteristic is quite similar with the mitochondria, but it is responsible in the conversion of light energy to chemical energy of sugars in the photosynthesis process in plants.
