Answer 2

Question :-

Describe the ultrastructure of Mitochondria ?

Answer :-

Definition of mitochondria :

Mitochondria is a double membrane bound organelle which provides energy to the cells in the form of adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP).

Ultrastructure of mitochondria :

Mitochondria is a double membrane bound organelle in which it has inner and outer membrane. Mitochondria are rod shaped and found in most of the eukaryotes. It is a double wall membranous structure.

• In mitochondria, the space between the inner membrane is called as matrix (ground substance).
• Mitochondria originates from pre-existing cells.
• Labelled diagram of mitochondria is given in the attachment.
