Thresholds for mtDNA mutations differ by organ and tissue type, and tissues with high OXPHOS demands (brain, heart, muscle, etc).
According to Miller, our phones are demanding our brains to multitask at levels we're just not capable of, and that affects our productivity levels and the overall quality of our thoughts.
It's almost as if... at the end of a grueling four-day work-week spent at the library demanding their brains' highest function, or at the studio pushing their bodies to the absolute physical limit, they welcome alcohol as an old friend.

Acting, some say, is exactly the kind of demanding, brain-stimulating activity that can help maintain and perhaps improve memory and overall cognitive health, not to mention enhance one's engagement with life.
Mitochondrial dysfunction caused by genetic mutations in mtDNA or nDNA encoded OXPHOS proteins affects the electron transport chain (ETC) function and impairs ATP production leading to the onset of mitochondrial diseases wherein the high energy demanding tissues such as brain, heart, retina and skeletal muscle are predominantly affected [34, 93].
But, since I didn't get a Yes or a No, like my pathetic little brain was demanding, I asked it again.
