Mitochondria Structure and Functions. Mitochondria are called the 'powerhouse of the cell'. They contain a number of enzymes and proteins that help process carbohydrates and fats obtained from the food we eat to release energy. Read on to know about the structure and functions of the organelle.lthough mitochondria are present in every cell, they are found in high concentrations in the muscle cells that require more energy. Though the primary function of mitochondria is to produce energy, they also play an important role in the metabolism and synthesis of certain other substances in the body.
The main function of mitochondria in aerobic cells is the production of energy by synthesis of ATP. However, mitochondria also have many other functions, including e.g.: Processing and storage of calcium ions (Ca2+). Apoptosis, i.e. the process of programmed cell death. Regulation of cellular metabolism.
