Why do plant cells have mitochondria?

The mitochondrion is the "power house" of the cell --> it generates energy for the cell. It takes sugars and breaks them down via oxidative phosphorylation and stores the energy in the form of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) Mitochondria have a double-membrane, cristae (surface is where the oxidative phophorilation occurs --> like little folds in organelle) Anyway, all eukariotic cells have mitochondria (not prokariotic - some people think that the organelle came from prokariotic cells but idk). This includes plant cells BASICALLY IF PLANT CELLS DIDN'T HAVE MITOCHONDRIA, THEY WOULDN'T HAVE THE ENERGY TO FUNCTION If you've read about the different kinds of transport (passive and active) you'll know that active pumps like the sodium potassium pump rely on the molecule ATP to pump out sodium and take in potassium To help make food.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
