How do mitochondria have enough surface area to carry out cellular respiration?

The inner surface of mitochondria is thrown into folds called cristae which increase the surface area to a great extent.


What do the cristae do for the mitochondria?

The folds of inner membrane of mitochondria are called cristae (singular: crista). Crista increases the surface area of mitochondria. Most of the biochemical work of mitochondria is done on the cristae.


How does the folds in the mitochondria relate to a cells efficiency in energy production?

The folds in the cristae increase the surface area, so cellular respiration can occur more efficiently.


Why is the inside of the mitochondria have folds?

Folds increase surface area.So it increase the rate of respiration.


When adding ATP what happens to cellular respiration?

It should increase in normal people, without impaired ADP for releasing 02 to mitochondria, the powerhouse cell of the body, then recycling ADp to keep the process going. I'm not positive of this.


Which respiratory disorders produce an increase in dead space volume and how would this increase in dead space affect cellular respiration and metabolism?

eventually the alveoli in the lungs will die because of lack of oxegen cellular respiration will decrease which in turn decreases cellular metabolism and necrosis occurs.


What organ releases hormones that increase the rate of cellular respiration throughout the body?

Thyroid


Why are there folds of inner cristae of mitochondria?

Folds increase surface area.So respiration take place efficiently.

Cellular Respiration


What mitochondrial feature enhances cellular respiration?

cristeaThey are the inner foldings.They increase the surface area


Does ATP syntaste produce ATP during cellular respiration?

Yes. ATP synthase does increase the production of ATP aerobic cellular respiration. That means oxygen has to be present to be the last or final electron acceptor.
