Does procariots have mitochondria?
No, prokaryotes do not have mitochondria. Mitochondria are membrane-bound organelles found in eukaryotic cells, which are more complex than prokaryotic cells. Prokaryotes generate energy through other means, such as through the plasma membrane or specialized membrane structures called mesosomes.
Where in the mitochondrion does the electron transport chain?
The electron transport chain is in the inner membrane of mitochondria.
Why mitochondria is acidophilic?
Mitochondria is acidophilic because it has membrane proteins which have a net positive charge . Any structures are acidophilic if they stain with eosin, which is a negatively charged dye that stains pink to red.
Why don't prokaryotic cells have mitochondria?
Prokaryotes are primitive organisms that do not have membrane bound structures. They do not have a proper chromosome but have a circular double stranded molecule of DNA called the nucleoid that is not enclosed in a nuclear membrane.
What organelle is surrounded by a double membrane?
Mitochondria are the only organelle in a cell which is surrounded by a double layered membrane. Also chloroplast in plants are surrounded by double layered membrane.
In what structures would cristae be found?
The inner membrane of the mitochondria
What organelle has membrane bound structures inside a cell that perform specialized functions?
nucleus i think either that or mitochondria
2 structures in sperm cell that are not found on animal cells?
Mitochondria
What is the structures and functions of mitochondria?
mitochondria is an endo-membrane organelle. it consists of an inner &outer membrane. it also contains an inter mitochondrial space. it is the power house of the cell where the photosynthesis takes place.
Does procariots have mitochondria?
No, prokaryotes do not have mitochondria. Mitochondria are membrane-bound organelles found in eukaryotic cells, which are more complex than prokaryotic cells. Prokaryotes generate energy through other means, such as through the plasma membrane or specialized membrane structures called mesosomes.
Where in the mitochondrion does the electron transport chain?
The electron transport chain is in the inner membrane of mitochondria.
What are the names of the structures of the cell?
Some cell structures are the cell membrane, the nucleus, vacuoles, mitochondria, RER and SER, ribosomes and cell walls in plants.
What are two structures that make animal cells and plant cells?
Nucleolus and Mitochondria. Edited answer: Plasma membrane and protoplasm.
Which parts of the mitochondria are directly involved in the synthesis of ATP during chemiosmosis?
matrix and inner membrane
What are the specialized structures in the cell membrane that are involved in communication?
Receptors and receptor proteins
Why is mitochondria?
Mitochondria is acidophilic because it has membrane proteins which have a net positive charge . Any structures are acidophilic if they stain with eosin, which is a negatively charged dye that stains pink to red.
Where in the process of cellular respiration does ATP synthase make ATP?
ATP synthase is involved in making ATP + P at the membrane in the mitochondria. This occurs at the beginning of the Krebs cycle.
