yes they called cristae to increase the surface area to allow a faster output of ATP
It is important for electron transport chain. Inner membrane folds to create cristae
Mitochondria are tube-like structures with many folds.
Folds increase surface area.So it increase the rate of respiration.
euglenozoa have disk shaped folds in the mitochondria (cristae)
mitochondria have an inner and outer membrane.theinne membranehas many twists and folds(called cristae),which increase the surface area available to proteins.
The space on the very inside of the mitochondria past the cristae (folds in the inner membrane) is called the mitochondrial matrix.

Folds increase surface area.So respiration take place efficiently.
Mitochondria
The Mitochondria.
mitochondria have an inner and outer membrane.theinne membranehas many twists and folds(called cristae),which increase the surface area available to proteins.
The space on the very inside of the mitochondria past the cristae (folds in the inner membrane) is called the mitochondrial matrix.
The inner folds of a mitochondria are called the cristae. The cristae is folded in order to maximize the space within the mitochondria in order to increase surface area. By doing so, aerobic respiration requires less ATP to function, and thus, makes the process more efficient
The space on the very inside of the mitochondria past the cristae (folds in the inner membrane) is called the mitochondrial matrix.
The folds in the cristae increase the surface area, so cellular respiration can occur more efficiently.
