False-colour transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of cytoplasm of a protozoan Paramecium sp featuring a mitochondrion (centre,the yellow,cigar-shaped organelle). Mitochondria are sites of energy production in the unicellular animal,containing ATP & a variety of enzymes involved in metabolic activity. Each is bounded by a double membrane,the inner one being folded inwards to form projections (cristae - orange lines),which partially compartmentalise the mitochondrion.
