Respuesta :
mitochondria have well folded inner menbrane which increases the surface area of mitochondria to perform the phosphorylation process.
The mitochondrion's structure is customised for the task it completes:
Outer membrane: The outer membrane has transport proteins that allow pyruvate to be shuttled out of the cytoplasm.
The electron transport chain and ATP synthase are located in the inner membrane (used for oxidative phosphorylation)
Folds called "cristae" are arranged in the inner membrane, which raises the SA:Vol ratio (more available surface)
Small intermembrane spaces between membranes maximise hydrogen gradients when proton buildup occurs.
Inner membrane has several internal protrusions. Matrix - core cavity with the necessary enzymes and pH for the Krebs cycle to occur (cristae)
Very little intermembrane space exists.
