where is the mitochondria located in a cell
Mitochondrion The endosymbiotic relationship of mitochondria with their host cells was popularized by Lynn Margulis.[33] The endosymbiotic hypothesis suggests that mitochondria descended from bacteria that somehow survived endocytosis by another cell, and became incorporated into the cytoplasm. The ability of these bacteria to conduct respiration in host cells that had relied on glycolysis and fermentation would have provided a considerable evolutionary advantage. This symbiotic relationship probably developed 1.7[34] to 2[35] billion years ago.
