Mitochondria, the sites of cellular respiration, are double-membraned organelles with internal cristae housing enzymes, and contain their own DNA for self-replication.
Mitochondria are responsible for cellular respiration, possess a double membrane with folded inner cristae containing enzymes, and have their own DNA allowing for self-replication.
