The inner membrane of mitochondrion has many infoldings into the inner chamber, these folding are called as:
Correct answer: A. Cristae
- A. Cristae
- B. Cisternae
- C. Matrix
- D. F1 particles
Explanation
The infoldings increase surface area for reactions to take place Cristae are the infoldings of the inner membrane of mitochondria Cisternae refers to any of the flattened discs of the endoplasmic reticulum and golgi apparatus Matrix is the space within the inner membrane F1 particles contain ATP synthase which is involved in ATP synthase
