was do energy processing organelles help cells do?

Question

i cant figure out what they do to help cells. do they help pass energy or what?

Answer 1

The main energy processing organelle is the mitochondrion, and it generates chemical energy in the form of ATP, which the cell uses to carry out its functions. The generation of this energy is called metabolism, and the energy is used to build and transport protiens, which are the physical building blocks of the body, as well as to evacuate wastes.

Answer 2

First of all, I hate people that just post sh*t from Wikipedia everywhere. The person asking the damn question could have done that. The majority of the ATP (energy) generated by eukaryotic cells comes from the mitochondria. This is accomplished through various reduction reactions and the resulting H+ ion gradient powering ATPase. But other organelles process energy also -- chaperones use energy to help proteins fold properly, the golgi complex uses energy to send cellular compenents to the correct place. Other than diffusion, most cellular actions require engery to be processed in one form or another.

Answer 3

Energy processing organelles convert energy into a form that the cells can actually use. Usually in the form of ATP.
