Question

the mitochondrion (plural: mitochondria)
question: to make atp, mitochondria need to take in...
a. food (like glucose)
b. carbon dioxide
c. oxygen
d. both food and oxygen (a and c).
chemicals from the breakdown of food
oxygen
atp
water
carbon dioxide

Explanation:

To make ATP, mitochondria perform cellular respiration. From the diagram and biological knowledge, mitochondria take in chemicals from food breakdown (like glucose from food) and oxygen. Option A is incomplete as it lacks oxygen, B is incorrect (CO₂ is a product), C is incomplete as it lacks food. So D (both food and oxygen) is correct.

Answer:

D. Both food and oxygen (A and C)
