What organelles inside the cell have membranes with many convolutions?

Cell membranes have many convolutions because they increasee the surface area to volume ratio, thus increasing the diffusion rate.

∙ 11y agoSome organelles that have convolutions are the endoplasmic reticulum and the mitochondria. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is highly folded and has many extensions to provide a large surface area for ribosomes to preform protein synthesis on. This allows more amino acids to be turned into proteins at a more efficient rate. The mitochondria have many small extensions and folds on the inner membrane called cristae that act as convolutions. They allow a greater surface area for cellular respiration and energy reactions to take place. More sugars produced by photosynthesis can be converted to a useful form of energy for the cell, usually in the form of ATP. Like in the cell membrane, the convolutions on these organelles allow tasks to be completed at a faster and more efficient rate by increasing surface area.

Which observation proves a cell is a eukaryote?
It has enclosed organelles inside the cell it has enclosed organells on the inside It has a nucleus . . . . . . . . .
Which observation provides evidence that a cell is most likely a eukayrote?
the organelles are enclosed in membranes
What are well-defined subcellular structures that are enveloped in membranes called?
Structures inside a cell membrane are called organelles, and they perform vital functions for a cell, like organs do for humans.Organelles.
What are cells that have internal membranes surrounding organelles?
Animal and Plant cells have internal membranes surrounding organelles. Animal cells have a cell membrane protecting the organelles. Plant cells have a cell membrane as well as a cell wall surrounding organelles.
Where is ATP often produced.?
Most ATP is produced in the mitochondria organelles inside of cells. The rest is recycled ATP that is used on the surface of cell membranes, the phosopholipid bilayers.
What form parts of cell membranes and many of the cell's organelles?
The answer is proteins.
What organelles inside the cell have membranes with many convolution and why?
The mitochondria has a membrane with many convolutions because it increases the surface area for ATP synthesis
How does cytoplasm help protect the organelles inside of a cell?
Cell membranes hold in cytoplasm and protect the organelles.
Why do cells have membranes with many convolutions?
Cell membranes have many convolutions because they increasee the surface area to volume ratio, thus increasing the diffusion rate.
Which observation proves a cell is a eukaryote?
It has enclosed organelles inside the cell it has enclosed organells on the inside It has a nucleus . . . . . . . . .
A cell that contain organelles surrounded by membranes most living things?
A cell containing organelles surrounded by membranes that is found in most living plants and animals is a eukaryotic cell.
What forms parts of cell membranes and many of the cell and organelles?
The answer is proteins.
How are organisms in the domain Eukarya different from those in the domain Archaea?
Archaea have no nucleus
What compound help form cell membranes are organelles speed up chemical reactions?
