Question

what is the main function of the mitochondria in a plant cell? to use energy from sunlight to make sugar to make lipids to store waste in the cell to break down sugar and release energy that the cell can use

Explanation:

Mitochondria are the power - houses of the cell. They perform cellular respiration, breaking down glucose to produce ATP (energy) for the cell's activities. Photosynthesis in chloroplasts uses sunlight to make sugar, lipid synthesis occurs in other cell parts, and waste storage is not a function of mitochondria.

Answer:

to break down sugar and release energy that the cell can use
