The cells' energy-producing engine is the mitochondria. That produces ATP, regulates innate immunity, calcium homeostasis, and programmed cell regulation.
Eukaryotes have a single-layer bilayer membrane while mitochondria have a double-membrane organelle. Things are kept in or out of the cell by the membrane. The mitochondrial membrane is a simple bilayer of phospholipids. That protects the mitochondria.
