Our Weekly Bookmarks Bar
[Blog Post: Mitochondria Are Alive] Mitochondria, once bacteria that entered a symbiotic relationship with early eukaryotic cells, display traits of independent life, such as replicating and processing energy autonomously, challenging their classification as mere organelles. Recognizing mitochondria as living entities may unlock new insights into bioenergetics, enabling advances in medical treatments for energy-related diseases and reshaping our understanding of cellular biology.
