describe the ultra-structure of mitochondria?
Answers
Answer:
Expla Structure of Mitochondria
The mitochondrion is a double-membraned, rod-shaped structure found in both plant and animal cell.
Its size ranges from 0.5 to 1.0 micrometre in diameter.
The structure comprises an outer membrane, an inner membrane, and a gel-like material called the matrix.
The outer membrane and the inner membrane are made of proteins and phospholipid layers separated by the intermembrane...
The outer membrane covers the surface of the mitochondrion and has a large number of special proteins known as porins.

Answer:
Explanation:
Mitochondria
>present in all cells
>is abundant in muscle cells /liver cells and active cells
>where they produce energy through cellular respiration
>are rod shaped
>the outer layer is selectively permeable
>allowing the requirements and products of cellular respiration to pass
>the inner membrane is highly folded(have cristae)
>thus increasing the surface area for cellular respiration
>Ribosomes are present in the matrix
>to synthesize enzymes for cellular respiration
