What is the structure of the mitochondria?
The structure of the mitochondria include the inner mitochondrial membrane, the outer mitochondrial membrane, the intermembrane space, the cristae, and then the mitochondrial matrix. Click on the related link for a detailed description on the structure of the mitochondria.
What are the ribbonlike folds on the inner lining of the mitochondrial called?
The ribbon-like folds on the inner lining of the mitochondrial membrane are called cristae.
What are the ribbonlike folds on the inner lining of the mitochondrial membrane call?
The ribbon-like folds on the inner lining of the mitochondrial membrane are called cristae.
What are the ribbonlike folds on the inner lining of the mitochondrial membrane called?

What is Mitochondrial Matrix?
The Fluid that is inside the inner membrane of a mitochondrion.
Why is the inner mitochondrial membrane is folded?
The outer membrane is smooth, while the inner membrane is convoluted into folds called cristae in order to increase the surface area

Inner Mitochondrial Membrane
Where does the electron transport chain take place in the mitochondria?
The electron transport chain takes place in the inner mitochondrial membrane.
What is the space inside the folds of the inner mitochondrial membranes?
The space on the very inside of the mitochondria past the cristae (folds in the inner membrane) is called the mitochondrial matrix.
