Respiration
okay excellent
Mitochondria are responsible for energy production. They are also the responsible location for which respiration takes place. Mitochondria contain enzymes that help convert food material into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which can be used directly by the cell as an energy source. Mitochondria tend to be concentrated near cellular structures that require large inputs of energy, such as the flagellum. The role of the mitochondria is very important in respiration.

…showed last 75 words of 945 total…on the system, NADH from glycolysis may be able to drive two or three proton pumping sites. For eukaryotes, only two pumping sites are driven; for prokaryotes, three. (184-5)
The importance of mitochondria is unremarkably, a key element in the process of respiration. Between the three distinct sections of respiration, glycolysis, Krebs Cycle, and Electron Transport, the mitochondrion is the site of which most of it takes place, either inside of the mitochondrion or outside it.
