Mitochondria are cellular compartments that are best known as the powerhouses that convert energy from the food into energy that runs a range of biological processes. Nearly all our cells have mitochondria.National Center for Microscopy and Imaging ResearchGuy Perkins, National Center for Microscopy and Imaging ResearchIllustration
