  Mitochondria is a membranous cytoplasmic organelle whose main function is the generation of energy through the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate
  Inside the mitochondria occurs cellular respiration, a process in which organic molecules of food react with oxygen gas, transforming into carbonic gas and water, producing energy.
  The energy released in the cellular respiration is stored in a substance called adenosine trisphosphate, that energy that is used for all the cellular and systemic processes of the body, as for example, for the thermal regulation.
  The matrix has specific enzymatic activities, such as the krebs cycle, lipid b-oxidation, DNA replication / transcription, and protein synthesis.
