IS nuclei are within the inner membrane of the mitochondria and increase its ability to create ATP?

No. The inner membrane contains many folds called cristae, which increase the surface area inside the organelle. The cristae increase the efficiency of the chemical reactions, allowing the mitochondria to create more ATP.

The area enclosed by the highly folded inner mitochondrial membrane is the?
No! Read. E-mail me when you find the answer.
How is the structure of the mitochondrion well adapted for the activities it carries out?
Much of respiration takes place in the mitochondria. Mitochondria have a double membrane: the outer membrane contains many protein channels, which let almost any small molecule through; while the inner membrane is more normal and is impermeable to most materials. The inner membrane is highly folded into folds called cristae, giving a larger surface area. The electron microscope reveals blobs on the inner membrane, which were originally called stalked particles. These have now been identified as the enzyme complex that synthesises ATP, are is more correctly called ATP synthase. the space inside the inner membrane is called the matrix, and is where the Krebs cycle takes place (the matrix also contains DNA and some genes are replicated and expressed here).
What is the energy called that is produced in mitochondria?
Mitochondria produce chemical energy, in the form of Adenosine triphosphate or ATP.
What is the structure and function in mitochondria?
Mitochondrion are capsule-shaped organelles that use food to create energy for the organism it inhabits.
What are the difference of mitochondria and chloroplast?
mitochondria,otherwise called the power house of a cell, are seen both in plant and animal cells and carryout respiration to produce energy. But chloroplasts are found only in some monerans and plants and are the sites of photosynthesis.
Are within the inner membrane of the mitochondria and increase its ability to create ATP. Nuclei?
No. The inner membrane contains many folds called cristae, which increase the surface area inside the organelle. The cristae increase the efficiency of the chemical reactions, allowing the mitochondria to create more ATP.
Why does the mitochondria have folds?
Generating ATP is efficient whe surface area is high.Inner folds increase the surface area.
Does mitochondria has folds or not?
yes they called cristae to increase the surface area to allow a faster output of ATPIt is important for electron transport chain. Inner membrane folds to create cristae
The area enclosed by the highly folded inner mitochondrial membrane is the?
No! Read. E-mail me when you find the answer.
Which cells have mitochondria to help create energy?
animals use mitochondria to help create energy
Mitochondria are like kidneys in that they filter out waste?
No, mitochondria do not filter waste. Mitochondria create energy for the cell.
How do plants cycle carbon and transfer energy from the mitochondria to chloroplast?
the chloroplasts and the mitochondria work together by trading nutrients. Both the mitochondria and the chloroplast create energy, the mitochondria create energy via respiration when there is no sunlight for the chlorophyll,
Are mitochondrias like kidneys in that filter out waste?
No, mitochondria do not filter waste. Mitochondria create energy for the cell.
Which cell have a mitochondria to help create energy for the cells?
Animal.
Does an animal have mitochondria that help create energy for the cells?
yes it does
Can animal cells create food?
no, they get the energy they need from the mitochondria.
Why is mitochondria is power cell?
Mitochondria create most of the energy in a cell therefore being the 'power house' organelle of the cell.
