The convolutions in the inner membrane of a mitochondrion are referred to as the cristae. Mitochondrion refers to an organelle found in most cells whereby energy production and respiration takes place.
The convolutions in the inner membrane of a mitochondrion are called cristae.
cristae
The mitochondria are surrounded by two membranes, the outer is smooth & the inner is folded into critae which increase the surface area. :)
The inner membrane folds in a mitochondrion are called cristae.
Inner foldings increase surface area. Inner membrane folds for that
The folds of the inner membrane are called cristae. They have three morphologies: flattened or sheet like, fingerlike or tubular, and paddle like.
They are called cristae. They increase surface area
Cristae
I think you are referring to the cristae. These are the folded parts of the inner membrane. The purpose is to increase surface area of the inner membrane against the matrix. The membrane is the site of the energy transfer in the mitochondria, so having more surface area is a plus.
The mitochondria are surrounded by two membranes, the outer is smooth & the inner is folded into critae which increase the surface area. :)
The inner membrane of mitochondria is ruffled becase it's to provide greater surface area. The inner membrane of the mitochondria is called cristae.
Cristae (singular; crista)
The electron transport chain takes place in the inner mitochondrial membrane.
It is called cristae. That is due inner foldings
Cristae (singular; crista)
The inner membrane folds in a mitochondrion are called cristae.
In the organelle called the mitochondria.In eukaryotes, electron transport occurs in the mitochondria. A mitochondrion is an organelle that is membrane bound.
The inner membrane in the mitochondria has many folds called cristae. The advantage of the cristae is that they increase the surface area of the membrane on which oxygen and carbohydrates combine to form ATP.
