What else can I help you with?
What feature of the inner membrane of the mitochondria allows this organelle to produced a great amount of energy?
a large surface area
Why is the inner membrane folded?
Mitochondria
What are folded layers of the inner membrane in mitochondria called?
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.
Where does the electron transport chain take place in the mitochondria?
The electron transport chain takes place in the inner mitochondrial membrane of the mitochondria. It consists of a series of protein complexes that transfer electrons and generate a proton gradient across the inner membrane, which is used to produce ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.
What is the structure of mitochondrion?
The mitochondria are called the powerhouses of the cell, where ATP is produced. It is composed of an inner membrane called cristae, and an outer membrane that covers the organelle.
Where are the the carriers of the electron transport chain located?
I don't think so. I think they are located in the inner membrane of the mitochondria, but I could be wrong.
Where ETS enzyme located in the mitochondria?
inner membrane
Where do the reactions of each electron transport chain occur?
In the inner membrane of the mitochondria.
Which are the parts of the mitochondria?
There are 3 main parts.Outer membrane,inner membrane and stroma.
What are the inner membranes of mitochondria?
The membrane that is inside the mitochondria, and where electron transport chain occurs.
In eukaryote electron transport occurs in the?
In the organelle called the mitochondria.In eukaryotes, electron transport occurs in the mitochondria. A mitochondrion is an organelle that is membrane bound.
What is the advantage of having a folder inner membrane in the mitochondria?
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.
