Expert Solution

Step 1

The sensitiveness of an organelle to a particular stimuli is based on the fact that how it reacts in terms of the substrate intake. In this case, stimulus is temperature and substrate is Oxygen. The graph is a parabolic graph. The maximum effect on mitochondrion seems to appear between 30-40 degrees C where enormous change in the O2 usage is seen as is evident by steepness of graph.
