Bacteria live on the surface of humans and a lot of other things. What organisms lie on the surface of bacteria or Mitochondria? (if anything).

Mitochondria is the Production centers for ATP, the molecules that supply energy for the cell. Only in muscle cells are such enzymes to be found—special enzymes with this capacity to burn calories so fast. Ninety percent of all the calories burned in the body are burned in muscles.. If you do not have these fat-burning enzymes, “you are going to get fat.
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the energy-rich source for muscle action. It is produced in the muscle fibers by small bodies called mitochondria and is formed in several ways. Fats in muscle tissue (adipose tissue) are broken down to become free fatty acids in the muscle and also in the blood. Eventually, in the muscle fibers they are oxidized to release energy to make ATP. Glucose from the blood is also oxidized in the muscle fibers to form ATP. Some glucose from the blood is stored in the muscles as carbohydrates, called glycogen. Then, as ATP is needed, this glycogen is broken down into glucose, which, without the use of oxygen, produces ATP.
