What else can I help you with?
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.
What is the double folded membrane that surrounds the lungs?
No. That is the pleural membrane . The pericardium surrounds the heart.
What are the folded layers in the inner membrane in mitochondria called?
Cristae (singular; crista)
Is chloroplast surrounded by membrane?
Yes, chloroplasts are surrounded by a double membrane. The outer membrane is smooth, while the inner membrane is folded into structures called thylakoids, where photosynthesis takes place.
What feature of the inner membrane of the mitochondrion allow the organelle to produce a great amount of energy?
The inner membrane is folded on itself multiple times in structures called "christae". These folds dramatically increase the surface area within the mitochondrion, which increases how much energy the organelle can make.
How do the folded membrane of the cells in the lining of the intestine enable them to absorb the maximum amount of digested food?
All cells has plasma,they are very important!!!
Why is the inner membrane folded?
Mitochondria
What contains a smooth outer and folded inner membrane in a cell?
The organelle that contains a smooth outer membrane and a folded inner membrane in a cell is the mitochondrion. Mitochondria are responsible for producing energy in the form of ATP through a process called cellular respiration.
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.
What is the purpose of the folded layers of membrane?
To increase the surface area.
What is a membrane system of folded sacs and tunnels?
Golgi body
What is a Rod-shaped organelle located in the cytoplasm has smooth outer membrane and a greatly folded inner membrane?
It is mitochondria.
What is the double folded membrane that surrounds the lungs?
No. That is the pleural membrane . The pericardium surrounds the heart.
Why is the inner mitochondrai membrane folded?
to give it more sure area
What is folded membrane that moves materials through the cell?
endoplasmic reticulum
What are the folded layers of the inner membrane in mitochondria?
Cristae (singular; crista)
Why is inner mitochondrial membrane folded?
The outer membrane is smooth, while the inner membrane is convoluted into folds called cristae in order to increase the surface area
