How does the arrangement of the cristae in the inner membrane of the mitochondria affect the rate of aerobic respiration?
The rate of aerobic respiration in the mitochondria is dependent on the surface area of the cristae because energy potential is built up through the pumping of hydrogen ions across the membrane. With more membrane surface area, there is more energy production and storage capacity so the rate of aerobic respiration may increase.
What is cristae?
"Cristae (singular crista) are the internal compartments formed by the inner membrane of a Mitochondrion." "They are studded with proteins, including ATP synthase and a variety of cytochromes. The maximum surface for chemical reactions to occur is within the mitochondria. This allows cellular respiration (aerobic respiration since the mitochondria requires oxygen) to occur" (All the above is from Wikipedia) Basically: -Cristae are formed by the inner membrane of the Mitochondrion -Cristae are studded with protein -Cristae allow Aerobic Cellular Respiration to occur CMS PRIDE GO RAMS
What happens at the cristae?
The cristae are folds in the inner membrane of mitochondria where most ATP synthesis occurs through the process of oxidative phosphorylation. This is where enzymes and molecules involved in the electron transport chain are located, allowing for efficient production of ATP.
Where does aerobic respiration occur in nature?
In the mitochondria.
What chemical reaction that occurs during mitochondria?
I think you are asking about the respiration reaction Glucose + oxygen ---> carbon dioxide + water C6H1206 + 6 O2 ---> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O (balanced equation)
Where does aerobic cellular respiration occur in eukaryote?
MITOCHONDRIA!
Aerobic respiration occurs in the mitochondria of cells and what else does Aerobic respiration occur in?
Mitochondria are composed of two membranes. the inner membrane forms many folds called cristae, which provide a large surface area where chemical reactions take place. the number of mitochondria present in different cells is related to the rate of energy usage by the cell.
What is the main difference between fire and respiration?
Aerobic respiration occur in living cells but fire does not occur in a cell. A fire activity occur in an open environment and does not require a material medium but aerobic respiration require a closed system which is usually the living cells to occur.
What gas must be present for the aerobic breakdown of glucose to occur?
Oxygen gas must be present for the aerobic breakdown of glucose to occur. This process, known as cellular respiration, takes place in the mitochondria of the cell and generates energy in the form of ATP.
True OR false type of cellular respiration that requires oxygen to occur?
It is TRUE that AEROBIC respiration requires oxygen to occur. It is FALSE that ANAEROBIC respiration requires oxygen to occur. It is FALSE that cells are DEPENDENT on AEROBIC respiration.
What are the 2 ways that respiration can occur in animals?
Aerobic and anaerobic
The cells of which of these organs undergo aerobic respiration?
According to Biologists, aerobic respiration can occur in the skin, the heart and kidneys as well as the lung cells.
