Recalling endosymbiont-theory, many millions of years ago a cell was hungry and incorporated a bacterium. So the cell wrapped a lysosome around the bacterium and tried to digest it. But somehow the bacterium resisted and both found that it's an advantage for them to live in symbiosis. The cell fed the bacterium with nutrients and it reciprocated by donating his host energy (ATP).
The proof lies within the form of the double membrane: the inner membrane has many wrinkles and resembles a bacterium while the outer membrane is smooth, like the mantle of a lysosome.
What else can I help you with?
Is the mitochondria a membrane organelle?
The mitochondria a membrane bound organelle. It has it's own DNA.
Do mitochondria possess a double membrane structure?
Yes, mitochondria have a double membrane structure.
What organelles that have a double membrane?
Nucleus Mitochondria
Do mitochondria have a membrane?
yes!
What are mitochondria surrounded by?
Mitochondria are surrounded by membranes.They have two membranes.
Is the mitochondria covered by a membrane?
Yes, the mitochondria is surrounded by a double membrane. The outer membrane is smooth, and the inner membrane is folded to form structures called cristae. This double membrane helps protect the contents of the mitochondria and regulate the flow of molecules in and out.
Does mitochondria contain a membrane?
Mitochondria are surrounded by membrane.Mitochondria have two membranes.
Does a nuclear membrane contain mitochondria?
No, a nuclear membrane does not contain mitochondria. The nuclear membrane, also known as the nuclear envelope, surrounds the nucleus of a cell and is composed of two lipid bilayers. Mitochondria are separate organelles responsible for energy production and have their own double membrane, distinct from the nuclear membrane.
What encloses the mitochondria?
The outer membrane encloses the mitochondria, acting as a barrier between the mitochondria and the rest of the cell. Additionally, the inner membrane inside the outer membrane further compartmentalizes and encloses the matrix where cellular respiration takes place.
Why is the inner membrane folded?
Mitochondria
What forms a Mitochondria?
it comes from the membrane
What membranes are present in the mitochondria?
Mitochondria have two membranes.They are similar to cell membrane.
