Question

give the answer
with explanation ​

Answer 1

Answer:

To increase the capacity of the mitochondrion to synthesize ATP, the inner membrane is folded to form cristae. These folds allow a much greater amount of electron transport chain enzymes and ATP synthase to be packed into the mitochondrion.

Answer 2

Answer:

The inner membrane of Mitochondria is deeply folded to create a large surface area for chemical reactions of oxidative phosphorylation, i.e. the process of converting food sugars into energy (ATP) to take place.
