Mitochondria are responsible for producing the energy currency of the cell, known as adenosine triphosphate (ATP), through the process of cellular respiration. In animal cells, mitochondria also have additional functions such as regulating cell processes and signaling pathways. In plant cells, mitochondria play a role in generating energy for various cellular functions, as well as participating in programmed cell death and stress responses.
