Explanation:

Mitochondrial diseases are a group of disorders caused by dysfunctional mitochondria. Mitochondria are found in every cell of the human body except red blood cells. Mitochondrial disorders may be caused by mutations (acquired or inherited), in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), or in nuclear genes that code for mitochondrial components. They may also be the result of acquired mitochondrial dysfunction due to adverse effects of drugs, infections, or other environmental causes.
