Its all called the mitochondria i think. I never learned other wise. I looked it up though and got that its called the inner membrane. I apologise if thats not overly helpful or not what youre looking for. Its the best i can do at 230
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.
Cristae (singular; crista)
In the organelle called the mitochondria.In eukaryotes, electron transport occurs in the mitochondria. A mitochondrion is an organelle that is membrane bound.
mitochondria have an inner and outer membrane.theinne membranehas many twists and folds(called cristae),which increase the surface area available to proteins.
The inner membrane in the mitochondria has many folds called cristae. The advantage of the cristae is that they increase the surface area of the membrane on which oxygen and carbohydrates combine to form ATP.

It is called cristae. That is due inner foldings

Mitochondria contain inner membranes called cristae, which are responsible for generating ATP through the process of oxidative phosphorylation.
